# Galactic diffuse emission with INTEGRAL/IBIS
|
|
|
|
This repository provides the code of the IBIS/ISGRI background model used in the paper "The properties of the Galactic Hard X-Ray and soft gamma-ray Background based on 20 years of INTEGRAL/IBIS observations" by Krivonos et al., (2024) [arXiv:2409.20058](https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.20058).
|
|
|
|
In addition to the code, the package contains preprocessed data in `data` directory. In particular, it contains ISGRI detector count rate cleaned from the contribution of X-ray point sources, for each INTEGRAL observation (so-called "science window", ScW) in the range of the INTEGRAL orbits 70-2740 and in different energy bands. This data set and code can be used to calibrate the ISGRI background model and measure the X-ray intensity of the Galactic background in different parts of the Milky Way.
|
|
|
|
The preprocessed data will be continuously updated until INTEGRAL stops registering photons.

# INSTALL
|
|
|
|
## Step 1. Creation of Python virtual environment
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir ~/work; cd ~/work
|
|
python3 -m venv venv
|
|
source ./venv/bin/activate
|
|
```
|
|
or activate already installed environment, e.g. conda:
|
|
|
|
``` conda activate ciao-4.15 ```
|
|
|
|
## Step 2. Clone a repository into a new directory
|
|
|
|
Go to working directory: ```cd ~/work```.
|
|
|
|
Then ```git clone git@heagit.cosmos.ru:integral/ridge.git``` or ```git clone http://heagit.cosmos.ru/integral/ridge.git```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Step 3. Install code in your Python virtual environment
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/work/ridge
|
|
pip install --editable ridge/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Pay attention to the **--editable** parameter, it allows you to edit the source code of this package and execute it immediately. If you do not plan to modify the local copy of the code, you can remove this option.
|
|
|
|
Install required packages:
|
|
```pip install -r requirements.txt```
|
|
|
|
After work, you can delete the project:
|
|
|
|
``` pip uninstall ridge ```
|
|
|
|
## Work with pre-processed data
|
|
|
|
Actual work with the data takes place in the `scripts` directory, where processing scripts must be run sequentially. This directory contains a detailed description of all actions.

Dedicated to Mikhail Revnivtsev (1974-2016). This work is based on observations with INTEGRAL, an ESA project with instruments and the science data centre funded by ESA member states (especially the PI countries: Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Spain), and Poland, and with the participation of Russia and the USA. The authors are grateful to E. M. Churazov, who developed the INTEGRAL/IBIS data analysis methods and provided the software.
