ecc_prior

Compute a prior for repeated bursts of GWs from highly eccentric binary systems.

  • Free software: MIT license

To clone this repo from github run:

git clone git+https://github.com/paulthebaker/ecc_prior@master

Features

  • compute centroids of future and pasts GW burst in time-frequency plane based on physically motavated meta-parameters.
  • compute prior probability for a burst at any (t,f) location based on meta-parameters.
  • follows the conventions of Loutrel and Yunes (2017) [LY2017].
  • included Jupyter notebooks use the ceedub package for wavelet transforms.
