load_mc_dl2_data_file#

magicctapipe.io.load_mc_dl2_data_file(input_file, quality_cuts, event_type, weight_type_dl2)[source]#

Loads a MC DL2 data file for creating the IRFs.

Parameters:

input_filestr: Path to an input MC DL2 data file
quality_cutsstr: Quality cuts applied to the input events
event_typestr: Type of the events which will be used - “software” uses software coincident events, “software_only_3tel” uses only 3-tel combination events, “magic_only” uses only MAGIC-stereo combination events, and “hardware” uses all the telescope combination events
weight_type_dl2str: Type of the weight for averaging telescope-wise DL2 parameters - “simple”, “variance” or “intensity” are allowed

Returns:

event_tableastropy.table.table.QTable: Table with the MC DL2 events surviving the cuts
pointingnp.ndarray: Telescope pointing direction (zd, az) in the unit of degree
sim_infopyirf.simulations.SimulatedEventsInfo: Container of the simulation information

Raises:
