TemplateSpectralModel#

class gammapy.modeling.models.TemplateSpectralModel(energy, values, interp_kwargs=None, meta=None)[source]#

Bases: gammapy.modeling.models.spectral.SpectralModel

A model generated from a table of energy and value arrays.

For more information see Template spectral model.

Parameters

energyQuantity: Array of energies at which the model values are given
valuesndarray: Array with the values of the model at energies energy.
interp_kwargsdict: Interpolation keyword arguments passed to scipy.interpolate.RegularGridInterpolator. By default all values outside the interpolation range are set to zero. If you want to apply linear extrapolation you can pass interp_kwargs={'fill_value': 'extrapolate', 'kind': 'linear'}. If you want to choose the interpolation scaling applied to values, you can use interp_kwargs={"values_scale": "log"}.
metadict, optional: Meta information, meta[‘filename’] will be used for serialisation.

plot(energy_bounds, ax=None, sed_type='dnde', energy_power=0, n_points=100, **kwargs)#

Plot spectral model curve.

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_bounds=(0.1, 100) * u.TeV)
>>> ax.set_yscale('linear')

Parameters

energy_boundsQuantity: Plot energy bounds passed to MapAxis.from_energy_bounds.
axAxes, optional: Matplotlib axes. Default is None.
sed_type{“dnde”, “flux”, “eflux”, “e2dnde”}: Evaluation methods of the model. Default is “dnde”.
energy_powerint, optional: Power of energy to multiply flux axis with. Default is 0.
n_pointsint, optional: Number of evaluation nodes. Default is 100.
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments forwarded to plot.

Returns

axAxes, optional: Matplotlib axes.

plot_error(energy_bounds, ax=None, sed_type='dnde', energy_power=0, n_points=100, **kwargs)#

Plot spectral model error band.

Note

This method calls ax.set_yscale("log", nonpositive='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() explicitly 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', nonpositive='clip') or plt.semilogy(nonpositive='clip').

Parameters

energy_boundsQuantity: Plot energy bounds passed to from_energy_bounds.
axAxes, optional: Matplotlib axes. Default is None.
sed_type{“dnde”, “flux”, “eflux”, “e2dnde”}: Evaluation methods of the model. Default is “dnde”.
energy_powerint, optional: Power of energy to multiply flux axis with. Default is 0.
n_pointsint, optional: Number of evaluation nodes. Default is 100.
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments forwarded to matplotlib.pyplot.fill_between.

Returns

axAxes, optional: Matplotlib axes.
