Welcome to BurstCube’s documentation!

Introduction

This is the BurstCube’s documentation page. For more information about the misson, please refer to the BurstCube Website.

BurstCube’s documentation is built with a series of different functions and modules that allow the following:

  • Creating different geometry files to allow for new arrangements of BurstCube to be subject to testing.

  • Creating source files of ranging sky locations and energies.

  • Quick manipulation of the MEGAlib Cosima function to permit quick simulations.

  • Packages such as bcSim and plotSim that grant fast and effective data processing.

BurstCube uses a configuration-file driven workflow in which the analysis parameters (data selection, IRFs, and ROI model) are defined in a YAML configuration file. Analysis is executed through a python script.
