Advanced Analysis MethodsΒΆ
This page documents some of the more advanced methods and features available in Fermipy:
- TS Map: Generate a test statistic (TS) map for a new source centered at each spatial bin in the ROI.
- TS Cube: Generate a TS map using the
gttscube
ST application. In addition to generating a TS map this method can also extract a test source likelihood profile as a function of energy and position over the whole ROI. - Residual Map: Generate a residual map by evaluating the difference between smoothed data and model maps (residual) at each spatial bin in the ROI.
- Source Finding: Find new sources using an iterative source-finding algorithim. Adds new sources to the ROI by looking for peaks in the TS map.
- SED Analysis: Extract the spectral energy distribution of a source
with the
sed
method. This method fits the source amplitude in a sequence of energy bins. - Light Curves: Extract the lightcurve of a source with the
lightcurve
method. This method fits the source amplitude in a sequence of time bins. - Extension Fitting: Fit the angular extension of a source with the
extension
method. - Source Localization: Find the best-fit position of a source with the
localize
method. - Phased Analysis: Instructions for performing a phased-selected analysis.
- Sensitivity Tools: Scripts and classes for estimating sensitivity.
