GaussianPulseLightcurve

class uvex_transients.models.lightcurves.generic.GaussianPulseLightcurve(**overrides: Parameter | Quantity | float | int)

A Gaussian pulse in luminosity, peaked at t_peak.

\[L(t) = A \exp\left(-\frac{(t - t_\mathrm{peak})^2}{2\sigma^2}\right)\]

\(L(t_\mathrm{peak}) = A\) exactly, by construction.

Parameters

The light curve parameters are summarized below.

Parameter	Symbol	Description
amplitude	\(A\)	Peak bolometric luminosity.
t_peak	\(t_\mathrm{peak}\)	Time of peak luminosity since explosion.
sigma	\(\sigma\)	Gaussian width of the pulse.

Methods

eval_log(t, **parameters)	Natural log of the bolometric luminosity, given physical-unit inputs.
eval_log_cgs(t, **parameters)	Natural log of the bolometric luminosity, taking and returning plain cgs numbers.

pack_params_to_arrays(**parameters)	Convert a dict of parameter values into an ordered sequence.
sample_parameters([size, rng, parameters])	Draw random samples of some or all of this model's parameters.
simulate(t[, size, rng])	Draw random parameter realizations and evaluate the model at the given time.
