pygwb.orfs.Sminus

pygwb.orfs.Sminus(alpha, beta)[source]

Function used in the computation of the scalar ORF, as given by Eq. (41) of https://arxiv.org/pdf/0903.0528.pdf

Parameters:
  • alpha (array_like) – Given below Eq. (32) of https://arxiv.org/pdf/0903.0528.pdf. Has same shape as frequencies used to compute the ORF.

  • beta (float) – Angle between detectors from center of the Earth.

Returns:
Sminus: array_like

Sminus parameter, as defined in Eq. (41) of https://arxiv.org/pdf/0903.0528.pdf.
