PrimaryFlux

class gammapy.astro.darkmatter.PrimaryFlux

Bases: TemplateNDSpectralModel

DM-annihilation gamma-ray spectra.

Based on the precomputed models of PPPC4 DM ID by [1], [2] and CosmiXs by [3], [4]. All available annihilation channels can be found there. The dark matter mass will be set to the nearest available value. The spectra will be available as TemplateNDSpectralModel for a chosen dark matter mass and annihilation channel. Using a TemplateNDSpectralModel allows the interpolation between different dark matter masses.

Parameters:

mDMQuantity

Dark matter particle mass as rest mass energy.

channelstr

Annihilation channel. List available channels with allowed_channels.

source{“cosmixs”, “pppc4”}, optional

Data source for the spectra. Default is ‘pppc4’.
