W44

The shape of W44 was fitted by an Elliptical Ring (ref. 1) and it spectra by a broken power law.

We saw an excess close to W44 and tried to refit the source to take into account this excess.

We refitted again the spectra of W44 by a Log-Parabola and studied the shape of W44.

The main point is that the results are consistent with previous work and with 2FGL cat.
