Cherenkov Astronomy Data School 2024

14 oct. 2024, 13:00 → 18 oct. 2024, 12:30 Europe/Paris

Observatoire de Paris

One-week school on gamma-ray astronomy organized at the Observatoire de Paris, designed for PhD students/postdocs/researchers eager to learn about gamma-ray astronomy data and the specific challenges of ground-based Cherenkov observations and of high-energy data analysis. The science analysis tool Gammapy, chosen by/for the international Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory CTAO, will be presented. Lectures and hands-on sessions (beginners and experienced users) will take place on two sites of the Observatoire de Paris, in Paris and Meudon.

 

The number of participants for this first school is limited to 30.

The registration is still open.

 

All the school material will be accessible thought https://github.com/bkhelifi/CADS_2024.

 

We propose to meet Wednesday evening for a common diner near the Montparnasse station in Paris, in the restaurant 'Food Society': https://gaite.foodsociety.fr/en/accueil.
