ExtragalacticTransient#

class uvex_transients.transients.base.ExtragalacticTransient(cosmology: Cosmology | None = None)[source]#

Extragalactic transient with a cosmological volumetric event rate; see the module docstring.

Parameters:: cosmology (Cosmology, optional) – The cosmology to use for this transient class. See __init__().

Methods

`compute_all_sky_yield`(duration)	Compute the expected intrinsic event count over the full sky.
`compute_all_sky_yield_ci`(duration)	Compute rate-only bounds on the expected all-sky intrinsic event count.
`event_rate`(z)	Compute the comoving event rate density at redshift(s) z, \(R(z;A)=A f(z)\).
`rate_shape`(z)	Compute the dimensionless redshift shape \(f(z)\) of the comoving event rate.
`registry`()	dict[str, type[TransientBase]]: A copy of every concrete subclass imported so far, keyed by class name.
`sample_event_count`(solid_angle[, duration, ...])	Sample the number of events in a given solid angle and duration.
`sample_event_redshift`(n_samples, *[, rng])	Draw n_samples redshifts from the rate-weighted redshift distribution.
`sample_events_on_healpix_grid`(nside, *, t_start)	Draw a Monte Carlo realization of events on a HEALPix grid, over a time window.

`all_sky_rate_ci`	Rate-only bounds on `all_sky_rate`.
`cosmology`	The cosmology used for luminosity-distance/volume calculations.
`duration_limit`	Upper bound on this transient's total duration.
`effective_volume`	\(\mathcal V\), the all-sky rate-weighted comoving volume.
`integrated_rate`	Expected event rate per observer time and solid angle.
