Description

This lecture will be dedicated to present the full work needed form the Cherenkov Telescope data to the analysis of LIV induced time-lag. This lecture will start with a presentation of gamma ray data and their production, and how they are analysed to produce high level results. We will work in a concrete way in real open data of the HESS cherenkov Telescope in order to assess the temporal and energetic distribution of an AGN flare. This first work will lead us to the next step, to extract constraints on an energy dependent time-lag from these real data. We will learn first how to produce Toy Monte Carlo data in order to test in safe environments time lag assessment, and in a second step work with real data.
