inspiral_range_psd¶
- gwpy.astro.inspiral_range_psd(psd: FrequencySeries, snr: float = 8, mass1: float = 1.4, mass2: float = 1.4, horizon: bool = False, **kwargs) FrequencySeries [source]¶
Calculate the cosmology-corrected inspiral sensitive distance PSD.
This method returns the power spectral density (in
Mpc**2 / Hz
) to which a compact binary inspiral with the given component masses would be detectable given the instrumental PSD. The calculation is defined in Belczynski et. al (2014):https://dx.doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/789/2/120
- Parameters:
- psd
FrequencySeries
The instrumental power-spectral-density data.
- snr
float
, optional The signal-to-noise ratio for which to calculate range.
- mass1
float
,Quantity
, optional The mass of the first binary component (
float
assumed in solar masses).- mass2
float
,Quantity
, optional The mass of the second binary component (
float
assumed in solar masses).- horizon
bool
, optional If
True
, return the maximal ‘horizon’ luminosity distance, otherwise return the angle-averaged comoving distance.- **kwargs
