Flare Analysis Summary of the present status Agustín Sánchez Losa27-Jul-2011
Flare Analysis Light curve denoising algorithm established: – Method of Scargle’s likelihood adapted to 2CP and with fixed Scargle’s prior (as presented in Moscow) – Flare periods (time PDFs, thresholds, etc) determined by the type of analysis Analysis plan established: – Period interval fixed: 1000 days from to MJD (Sep’08-Jun’11) – 4 different analysis types: Agustín Sánchez Losa27-Jul
Flare Analysis Analysis types: 1.Individual flare analysis: Only very significant flares Low post-trial factor (proportional to the total number of flares) Low number of events for discovery 3 categories: – Blazars (GeV): Fermi, SWIFT,... – Blazars (TeV): HESS, MAGIC, VERITAS... – PWN (GeV): Fermi, SWIFT,... 2.Cumulative flare analysis: Source by source Post-trial factor equal to the number of studied sources Selection of an adequate threshold 1 category: – Blazars (GeV): Fermi, SWIFT,... 3.Untriggered analysis: search of clusters in time-space 4.Scanning analysis: event by event Agustín Sánchez Losa27-Jul

To Do List Debug the “flare’s tail smooth selection” algorithm and any other minor thing Implement a threshold criteria based in the fluence of a box, not in the flux intensity Once the flares are manually fixed and chosen start analyzing Agustín Sánchez Losa Jul-2011
