June 7, 2021 (Meeting Massimo, Jamil)

1. Introduction to project
2. To-do list
   1. https://docs.gammapy.org/0.18.2/
   2. Read overview carefully
   3. Installation: no need to worry about it, we have shared tools on the nevis cluster
      1. log into the nevis cluster
      2. module load gammapy/0.18
      3. gammapy_start
   4. download tutorial datasets (gammapy download tutorials --release 0.18.2 , export GAMMAPY_DATA=<>)

1. Read through gammapy and cta explanation of IRFs
2. Read gammapy overview

1. What was done today:
   1. Added gammapy resources to .myprofile file
   2. started working on gammapy tutorials
      1. code to start tutorials:

         1. ssh jbatshoun@tehanu.nevis.columbia.edu -L 9888:localhost:9888

         2. module load gammapy/0.18
         3. gammapy_start
         4. jupyter notebook --no-browser --port=9888
         5. copy & paste resulting link to chrome and use jupyter notebook normally
      2. COMPLETED: 1st gammapy tutorial analysis_1.ipynb
2. Things left to do:
   1. create a .myprofile and copy contents of .profile into it.
   2. Remove gammapy line in .profile so that it is the same as when I first started (This might be unnecessary).
3. Notes:
   1. Useful commands
      1. To check where the "juypter notebook" command is being used from (i.e. gammapy vs python): which jupyter-notebook
   2. Made an error when executing "export $GAMMAPY_DATA". executed in jbatshoun directory and not datasets directory. Noticed in tutorial what should have been the real path and made corrections.
