@GernotMaier - The difference in the equations you give is just whether they contain e_cut
or lambda=1/e_cut
, right?
In gamma-cat we currently use e_cut
.
You can see this in the schema:
and how the catalog is filled:
Line 325 in ba11b08
Indeed when we map to a spectral model in Gammapy
https://github.com/gammapy/gammapy/blob/f48b22d7f7ab9430bb2ab78521736a6e381b5318/gammapy/catalog/gammacat.py#L271
we use
http://docs.gammapy.org/dev/api/gammapy.spectrum.models.ExponentialCutoffPowerLaw.html which has lambda
, but that is filled as lambda=1/e_cut
.
Note that if needed, we can add more spectral models to gamma-cat and Gammapy.
E.g. in Gammapy we already have this second ECPL parametrisation because it was used in the Fermi-LAT 3FGL catalog: http://docs.gammapy.org/dev/api/gammapy.spectrum.models.ExponentialCutoffPowerLaw3FGL.html
@GernotMaier - So is there an issue with the data entry for VERITAS?
The HESS catalog will come out soon and I want to add the data to gamma-cat. There we use lambda
and lambda_err
. So I guess we should add an ECPL variant to gamma-cat that supports direct data entry of lambda
and lambda_err
, no? Any suggestion for what to call it? I think in HESS this is "ecpl3". :-)

OK - everything clear. I missed the 1/E_cut and was simply confused - so nothing additional is needed and there is no issue with this.
(good to be closed).
