This is the test report which compare the original TimeProfile used for the simulation (red) with the reconstructed photons

For the Crab we used these parameters:

And this is the report for the Crab Pulsar:
Results on less luminous pulsars
Then I show here also the results for PSR1055-52, that have a smaller flux than Crab and Vela. Here the number of photons is smaller, but we see that the profile follows the TimeProfile used for simulation.

Conclusions
This tests shows that there is no remarkable differences between the TimeProfile used for simulation and the histogram of the phases after applying corrections with glbary and pulsePhase, provinding a good crosscheck between the simulation Tools and the analysis Tools. IMAGE
