CTA-Oz Gammapy School 2024

Wednesday 15 May 2024, 12:15 → 23:00 Australia/Adelaide

CTA-Oz Gammapy School 2024

 

We now have re-scheduled the Gammapy school to Wed. May 15.

This one-day school focuses on the open-source Python packag gammapy, which is the core library for the Science Analysis tools of CTA. It is the recommended tool to analyse data from the upcoming CTAO Science Data Challenge and it is very useful to investigate prospective science with CTA. It is also widely used in the analysis of data from other gamma-ray instruments, such as HESS, MAGIC, VERITAS and HAWC.

The meeting will be held remotely via Zoom.

To prepare for the School, we strongly encourage you to download/install gammpy and the necessary data using instructions in the "Installation++" tab provided here.

Further details about gammapy are available from its website - https://gammapy.org/

Zoom access: https://adelaide.zoom.us/j/89232927832?pwd=Z3BiNXh0K3BzYWovZmVCWHRDM0FLZz09

Please note that there is no registration fee for this event.
