PROFILE
Christopher M. Karwin
Contributed to the cositools/cosipy repository by developing advanced astrophysical data analysis features and improving scientific workflows. Built the GalpropHealpixModel for spectral interpolation of GALPROP HEALPix data, enabling 3D integration for extended sources and supporting robust spatial and energy calculations. Enhanced spectral fitting pipelines with Earth occultation logic and coordinate-aware scattering maps, while refining data path management and notebook reliability. Addressed critical bugs in livetime slicing and stabilized altitude data handling. Leveraged Python, Astropy, and Jupyter Notebooks to implement unit tests, data visualization, and configuration management, ensuring reproducible results and improved onboarding for researchers working with complex astrophysical datasets.

11 Commits • 4 Features
Apr 1, 2025April 2025: Delivered a foundational GalpropHealpixModel for reading GALPROP data, interpolating energy spectra at sky positions, scaling with a normalization constant K, setting coordinate frames, and computing spatial integrals across energies. Implemented comprehensive unit tests and data support to validate initialization, data loading, evaluation across coordinate frames and energies, and saving/loading within an astromodels configuration. Enabled 3D integration for extended sources via get_integrated_extended_model_3d and extended-source updates, with accompanying tests for 3D spatial integration and expectation calculations. Released Galactic diffuse continuum tutorials and improved example notebooks with aligned configurations and better plotting/data presentation. Addressed a merge discrepancy in tutorials and data pipelines to improve consistency. Repository: cositools/cosipy.
