LeakageLib documentation

LeakageLib provides tools for polarimetric analysis with IXPE data. The three primary tools are

1. A fitting library which uses advanced weights to deliver precise polarization estimates

2. A neural net which assigns each event a likelihood of representing a particle.

3. Software to predict polarization leakage patters

For details and examples, please see the “Polarization fitting,” “Background particle weighting,” and “Leakage Prediction” pages. This site also provides full API documentation of LeakageLib
