cogwheel.gw_utils.isco_frequency¶
- cogwheel.gw_utils.isco_frequency(m_tot)¶
Gravitational-wave frequency of the innermost stable circular orbit.
f_ISCO = 1 / (6^(3/2) pi m_tot) c^3 / G.
- Parameters:
- m_tot: float
Total mass of the binary (Msun).
- Returns:
- float
Approximate gravitational-wave frequency (Hz) of the innermost stable circular orbit.
