PulsarTimingAnalysis

DOI

Tools to perform the periodicity analysis of gamma-ray emission from pulsars. It focuses on the data from the LST-1 telescope of the future CTAO gamma-ray observatory. It is built on top of Gammapy and PINT libraries.

  1. Modelling and calculation of phases with LST-1 and Fermi-LAT data
  2. Statistics, building phaseograms and search for pulsations with LST-1 and Fermi-LAT data
