plot_bkg_fit

sherpa.astro.ui.plot_bkg_fit(id: IdType | IdTypes | None = None, bkg_id: IdType | None = None, replot: bool = False, overplot: bool = False, clearwindow: bool = True, **kwargs) → None

Plot the fit results (data, model) for the background of a PHA data set.

Changed in version 4.18.0: Multiple data sets can be displayed by using a list of identifiers. Per-plot options can now be given by using a list of values.

Parameters:
idint, str, sequence of int or str, or None, optional

The data set that provides the data. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by get_default_id.

bkg_idint, str, or None, optional

Identify the background component to use, if there are multiple ones associated with the data set.

replotbool, optional

Set to True to use the values calculated by the last call to plot_bkg_fit. The default is False.

overplotbool, optional

If True then add the data to an existing plot, otherwise create a new plot. The default is False.

clearwindowbool, optional

Should the existing plot area be cleared before creating this new plot (e.g. for multi-panel plots)?

Raises:
sherpa.utils.err.ArgumentErr

If the data set does not contain PHA data.

sherpa.utils.err.IdentifierErr

If the bkg_id parameter is invalid.

sherpa.utils.err.ModelErr

If no model expression has been created for the background data.
