3D simulation and fitting

This tutorial shows how to do a 3D map-based simulation and fit.

For a tutorial on how to do a 3D map analyse of existing data, see the analysis_3d tutorial.

This can be useful to do a performance / sensitivity study, or to evaluate the capabilities of Gammapy or a given analysis method. Note that is is a binned simulation as is e.g. done also in Sherpa for Chandra, not an event sampling and anbinned analysis as is done e.g. in the Fermi ST or ctools.

Fit

Now let’s analyse the simulated data. Here we just fit it again with the same model we had before, but you could do any analysis you like here, e.g. fit a different model, or do a region-based analysis, …

In [17]:
# Define sky model to fit the data
spatial_model = SkyGaussian(lon_0="0 deg", lat_0="0 deg", sigma="1 deg")
spectral_model = PowerLaw(
    index=2, amplitude="1e-11 cm-2 s-1 TeV-1", reference="1 TeV"
)
model = SkyModel(spatial_model=spatial_model, spectral_model=spectral_model)

# Impose that specrtal index remains within limits
spectral_model.parameters["index"].min = 0.0
spectral_model.parameters["index"].max = 10.0

print(model)
