SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Cosmio Nigro
DESCRIPTION:Community\, Standardisation\, and Reproducibility: does open-source software help advancing high-energy astrophysics?\nIn this talk\, I will discuss how high-energy astrophysics\, and gamma-ray astronomy in particular\, are being transformed by several community-based efforts to develop standardised data and open-source software both for statistical analysis and physical modelling. \nIn the first part of the talk\, I will focus my attention on the Data Formats for Gamma-ray Astronomy (GADF) initiative\, which proposes a standardised format for gamma-ray astronomical data. This format has been successfully adopted by the current generation of gamma-ray instruments; making\, for the first time\, their data analysable with open-source science tools such as Gammapy. I will present some examples of technical results achieved by adopting these standardised data and tools\, and argue for their potential in facilitating future multi-instruments analyses. \nIn the second part of the talk\, I will discuss the endeavor to develop open-source tools for modelling the emission of astrophysical sources\, which are effectively opening the possibility to perform physical interpretation to the community\, a task previously performed by a few groups with proprietary software. \nI will conclude by discussing the potential impact this new philosophy of open-source development can have on our increasingly digital science.
