NaimaSpectralModel¶

class gammapy.modeling.models.NaimaSpectralModel(radiative_model, distance=<Quantity 1. kpc>, seed=None, nested_models=None)[source]¶

Bases: gammapy.modeling.models.SpectralModel

A wrapper for Naima models.

For more information see Naima Spectral Model.

Parameters

radiative_modelBaseRadiative: An instance of a radiative model defined in models
distanceQuantity, optional: Distance to the source. If set to 0, the intrinsic differential luminosity will be returned. Default is 1 kpc
seedstr or list of str, optional: Seed photon field(s) to be considered for the radiative_model flux computation, in case of a InverseCompton model. It can be a subset of the seed_photon_fields list defining the radiative_model. Default is the whole list of photon fields
nested_modelsdict: Additionnal parameters for nested models not supplied by the radiative model, for now this is used only for synchrotron self-compton model

Methods Documentation

__call__(self, energy)¶: Call self as a function.

copy(self)¶: A deep copy.

static create(tag, *args, **kwargs)¶

Create a model instance.

Examples

>>> from gammapy.modeling.models import Model
>>> spectral_model = Model.create("PowerLaw2SpectralModel", amplitude="1e-10 cm-2 s-1", index=3)
>>> type(spectral_model)
gammapy.modeling.models.spectral.PowerLaw2SpectralModel

energy_flux(self, emin, emax, **kwargs)¶

Compute energy flux in given energy range.

\[G(E_{min}, E_{max}) = \int_{E_{min}}^{E_{max}} E \phi(E) dE\]

Parameters

emin, emaxQuantity: Lower and upper bound of integration range.
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments passed to func:integrate_spectrum

evaluate(self, energy, **kwargs)[source]¶: Evaluate the model.

evaluate_error(self, energy, epsilon=0.0001)¶

Evaluate spectral model with error propagation.

Parameters

energyQuantity: Energy at which to evaluate
epsilonfloat: Step size of the gradient evaluation. Given as a fraction of the parameter error.

Returns

dnde, dnde_errortuple of Quantity: Tuple of flux and flux error.

classmethod from_dict(data)[source]¶

classmethod from_parameters(parameters, **kwargs)¶

Create model from parameter list

Parameters

parametersParameters: Parameters for init

Returns

modelModel: Model instance

integral(self, emin, emax, **kwargs)¶

Integrate spectral model numerically.

\[F(E_{min}, E_{max}) = \int_{E_{min}}^{E_{max}} \phi(E) dE\]

If array input for emin and emax is given you have to set intervals=True if you want the integral in each energy bin.

Parameters

emin, emaxQuantity: Lower and upper bound of integration range.
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments passed to integrate_spectrum()

inverse(self, value, emin=<Quantity 0.1 TeV>, emax=<Quantity 100. TeV>)¶

Return energy for a given function value of the spectral model.

Calls the scipy.optimize.brentq numerical root finding method.

Parameters

valueQuantity: Function value of the spectral model.
eminQuantity: Lower bracket value in case solution is not unique.
emaxQuantity: Upper bracket value in case solution is not unique.

Returns

energyQuantity: Energies at which the model has the given value.

plot(self, energy_range, ax=None, energy_unit='TeV', flux_unit='cm-2 s-1 TeV-1', energy_power=0, n_points=100, **kwargs)¶

Plot spectral model curve.

kwargs are forwarded to matplotlib.pyplot.plot

By default a log-log scaling of the axes is used, if you want to change the y axis scaling to linear you can use:

from gammapy.modeling.models import ExpCutoffPowerLawSpectralModel
from astropy import units as u

pwl = ExpCutoffPowerLawSpectralModel()
ax = pwl.plot(energy_range=(0.1, 100) * u.TeV)
ax.set_yscale('linear')

Parameters

axAxes, optional: Axis
energy_rangeQuantity: Plot range
energy_unitstr, Unit, optional: Unit of the energy axis
flux_unitstr, Unit, optional: Unit of the flux axis
energy_powerint, optional: Power of energy to multiply flux axis with
n_pointsint, optional: Number of evaluation nodes

Returns

axAxes, optional: Axis

plot_error(self, energy_range, ax=None, energy_unit='TeV', flux_unit='cm-2 s-1 TeV-1', energy_power=0, n_points=100, **kwargs)¶

Plot spectral model error band.

Note

This method calls ax.set_yscale("log", nonposy='clip') and ax.set_xscale("log", nonposx='clip') to create a log-log representation. The additional argument nonposx='clip' avoids artefacts in the plot, when the error band extends to negative values (see also https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/8623).

When you call plt.loglog() or plt.semilogy() explicitely in your plotting code and the error band extends to negative values, it is not shown correctly. To circumvent this issue also use plt.loglog(nonposx='clip', nonposy='clip') or plt.semilogy(nonposy='clip').

Parameters

axAxes, optional: Axis
energy_rangeQuantity: Plot range
energy_unitstr, Unit, optional: Unit of the energy axis
flux_unitstr, Unit, optional: Unit of the flux axis
energy_powerint, optional: Power of energy to multiply flux axis with
n_pointsint, optional: Number of evaluation nodes
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments forwarded to matplotlib.pyplot.fill_between

Returns

axAxes, optional: Axis

spectral_index(self, energy, epsilon=1e-05)¶

Compute spectral index at given energy.

Parameters

energyQuantity: Energy at which to estimate the index
epsilonfloat: Fractional energy increment to use for determining the spectral index.

Returns

indexfloat: Estimated spectral index.

to_dict(self)¶: Create dict for YAML serialisation
