LuminousFastBlueOpticalTransient.rate_shape(z: float | NDArray[float64]) → float | NDArray[float64][source]#

Return the (trivial, constant) rate shape of LFBOTs at a given redshift.

Parameters:

z (float or array-like) – Redshift(s) at which to evaluate the rate shape.

Returns:

Ones, since the LFBOT rate is constant in z (Perley et al. 2026; Ho & Lu et al. 2026).

Return type:

float or array-like
