Eventdisplay
Keywords: Data analysis, Astronomy, Gamma-ray telescopes
Eventdisplay is a reconstruction and analysis pipeline for data of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT).
It has been primarily developed for VERITAS and CTAO analysis.
The Eventdisplay package consists of several analysis steps and tools:
evndisp: calibrate and parametrize images, event reconstruction, stereo analysistrainTMVAforAngularReconstruction: train boosted decision trees for direction and energy reconstructionmscw_energy: fill and use lookup tables for mean scaled with and length calculation, energy reconstruction, stereo reconstructiontrainTMVAforGammaHadronSeparation: train boosted decision trees for gamma/hadron separationmakeEffectiveArea: calculation of the instrument response functions (effective areas, angular point-spread function, energy resolution)makeRadialAcceptance: calculation of radial camera acceptance from data filesanasum: calculate sky maps and spectral energy distributionlibVAnaSum: shared library tools (e.g., plot instrument response function, spectral energy distributions, light curves, sky maps)
