# Hazma

hazma is a tool for analyzing theories of sub-GeV dark matter. It can compute gamma-ray spectra from dark matter annihilations, set limits using current gamma-ray data and make projects for future gamma-ray detectors. It can generate positron spectra as well, and derive accurate CMB constraints. hazma includes several pre-implemented sub-GeV dark matter models, and provides the infrastructure to add custom ones.

## Installation

hazma is currently still in development. If you would like to try it anyways, you can install it using the command:

pip install –index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ hazma

Alternatively, you can download hazma directly from this page, navigate to the package directory using the command line and run

pip install .

or

python setup.py install

Since hazma utilizes C to rapidly compute gamma ray, electron and positron spectra, you will need to have the cython package installed.

Another way to run hazma is by using docker. If you have docker installed on your machine, clone the hazma repository and in the hazma directory, run:

docker build –rm -t jupyter/hazma .

This will build the docker image called jupyter/hazma. Then to start a jupyter notebook, run:

docker run -it -p 8888:8888 -v /path/to/hazma/tutorials:/home/jovyan/work –rm –name jupyter jupyter/hazma

This will start a jupyter kernel.
