OGIPDatasetWriter

class gammapy.datasets.OGIPDatasetWriter(filename, format='ogip', overwrite=False)

Bases: gammapy.datasets.io.DatasetWriter

Write OGIP files.

If you want to use the written files with Sherpa you have to use the ogip-sherpa format. Then all files will be written in units of ‘keV’ and ‘cm2’.

The naming scheme is fixed as following:

• PHA file is named filename.fits

• BKG file is named filename_bkg.fits

• ARF file is named filename_arf.fits

• RMF file is named filename_rmf.fits

Parameters

filenamepathlib.Path or str

Filename.

format{“ogip”, “ogip-sherpa”}

Which format to use.

overwritebool

Overwrite existing files?
