Summary SNR G166.0+04.3

https://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/surveys/snrs/snrs.G166.0+4.3.html

Parameter Value
Right Ascension 05 26 30
Declination +42 56
Size (arcmin) 55×35
Type S
Flux Density at 1 GHz (Jy) 7
Spectral Index 0.37
Radio Two arcs of strikingly different radii
Optical Nearly complete ring
X-ray Predominantly in SW
Distance HI indicates 4.5 kpc, optical extinction suggests 3.2 kpc

Stars in question:

195633320791780608, 195633325090480896

in the input file they are at line nos

3449, 3587 respectively

Stars in the region:

Region is defined as 1 deg around the center at:

81.625 deg, 42.93333333 deg has 130,096 sources

and distance range (with RUWE < 1.4 and PlxQ > 5):

2.5 kpc to 5 kpc has 4,749 sources

Workflow:

Aim: to trace back any 2 Gaia stars.

Step 1: Create the input.tsv file

This file conatins the two stars to be traced back. The Gaia source IDs are required for the two stars. Using the commands:

trace = Traceback(195633320791780608, 195633325090480896)
trace.create_input_file()

Step 2: Create the trace.conf file

This file contains the parameters of the traceback simulation. This requires a sample_config.conf file containing the main fields for the traceback.

Use the class SimulationConfig to create it:

# Usage example
sample_config = 'sample_trace.conf'
config = SimulationConfig(sample_config)

# Change parameters with attributes
config.orbits = 100_000  
config.steps = 1000     
config.stepsize = -100
config.width = 100
config.star1 = '"two_trace/input.tsv#2"'
config.star2 = '"two_trace/input.tsv#3"'
config.outfile = '"two_trace/trace/test"'
# Save the changes
config.save_config('giessler_traceback/two_trace/trace.conf')

Step 3: Run the simulation

Now that the two files: input.tsv and trace.conf are created, we are ready to run the simulation. To run the simulation:

execute_command('cd giessler_traceback ; examples/trace/traceback two_trace/trace.conf')
