cogwheel.gw_prior.extrinsicΒΆ

Default modular priors for extrinsic parameters, for convenience.

They can be combined just by subclassing CombinedPrior and defining an attribute prior_classes that is a list of such priors (see gw_prior.combined). Each may consume some arguments in the __init__(), but should forward as **kwargs any arguments that other priors may need.

Classes

IsotropicInclinationPrior

Uniform-in-cosine prior for the binary's inclination.

IsotropicSkyLocationPrior

Isotropic prior for the sky localization angles.

ReferenceDetectorMixin

Methods for priors that need to know about the reference detector.

UniformComovingVolumePrior

Distance prior uniform in comoving volume-time.

UniformLuminosityVolumePrior

Distance prior uniform in luminosity volume and detector-frame time.

UniformPhasePrior

Uniform prior for the orbital phase.

UniformPolarizationPrior

Uniform prior for the polarization.

UniformTimePrior

Prior for the time of arrival at a reference detector.
