Filtered timeseries

This example shows the strain timeseries for the LIGO-Hanford detector around GW150914 filtered to emphasise the visibility of the known signal (see Filtering a TimeSeries to detect gravitational waves for more detail).

gwpy-plot timeseries \
    --gwosc \
    --ifo H1 \
    --start 1126259458 \
    --duration 8 \
    --xmin 1126259462.1 \
    --xmax 1126259462.6 \
    --epoch 1126259462 \
    --xscale seconds \
    --lowpass 300 \
    --highpass 50 \
    --notch 60 120 \
    --ylabel 'Strain amplitude' \
    --geometry 1200x400 \
    --suptitle 'LIGO-Hanford strain (filtered) around GW150914' \
    --interactive

The same command can be executed directly in Python as:

from gwpy.cli.gwpy_plot import main
main([
    'timeseries',
    '--gwosc',
    '--ifo', 'H1',
    '--start', '1126259458',
    '--duration', '8',
    '--xmin', '1126259462.1',
    '--xmax', '1126259462.6',
    '--epoch', '1126259462',
    '--xscale', 'seconds',
    '--lowpass', '300',
    '--highpass', '50',
    '--notch', '60', '120',
    '--ylabel', 'Strain amplitude',
    '--geometry', '1200x400',
    '--suptitle', 'LIGO-Hanford strain (filtered) around GW150914',
    '--interactive',
