Eccentricity (dyad.stats.eccentricity)

This module contains probability distributions for the orbital eccentricities of a population of binary stars. In its documentation the random variable is denoted \(E\) and a realization of that random variable is denoted \(e\).

Probability distributions

duquennoy1991	The eccentricity random variable of Duquennoy and Mayor (1991)
moe2017	The eccentricity random variable of Moe and Stefano (2017)
thermal	The thermal eccentricity random variable
