  1. 2D binned likelihoodsource detection Jean-Marc Casandjian CEA Saclay

  2. 2D binned likelihood with DC2 • GOAL: find a fast way to get good enough source fluxes and positions • in particular a good position • compare with the current unbinned likelihood performance • use of the EGRET program LIKE (fortran, Mattox et al. 1994) • not fast !!! • binning 0.5° x 0.5° • energy bands: • 100MeV - 200GeV • 300MeV - 1GeV • 1GeV - 200GeV • input generated with gtcntsmap, gtmodelmap and exposure_map • LAT PSF assuming E-2.3 sources • counts and exposure maps for the whole period • Galactic interstellar emission maps

  4. iterations 1 & 2

  5. interations 3 & 4

  6. DC2 sources • extended sources detected • soft sources detected twice

  7. coordinate problem • offset problem between the gtmodelmap binning and LIKE’s interpretation of it • all sources along Gal. plane shifted by 0.25°

  8. df resulting from binning d < 1 bin typically 0.5° binning ill-adapted at high-energy will be updated soon catalogue vs. 2D results distance (deg) Flux difference (%)

  9. conclusions • running time estimate of ~ 12 hours with a small 10 cpu cluster for an optimized program • energy-dependent binning to get precise fluxes and positions for a large range of spectral indices • 0.5° x 0.5° binning enough for a quick-look search for potential source candidates  reasonably bright transient search
