Statistical properties (dyad.stats)
This module contains probability distributions for the masses and orbital elements of a population of binary stars.
Probability distributions
Each univariate distribution is an instance of a subclass of Scipy’s
scipy.stats.rv_continuous class in the same way that
univariate distributions in Scipy are.
The random variable for the longitude of the ascending node |
|
The random variabe for inclination |
|
The random variabe for the argument of pericentre |
|
The random variable for true anomaly |
Submodules
Where there is a choice of distribution the options are made available in a submodule. For the distributions provided by a particular submodule see that module’s documentation. Conditional random variables are implemented using shape parameters to specify the value of the condition.
Eccentricity (dyad.stats.eccentricity) |

Log-period (dyad.stats.log_period) |

Mass (dyad.stats.mass) |

Mass ratio (dyad.stats.mass_ratio) |

Semimajor-axis (dyad.stats.semimajor_axis) |
Warnings/errors used in dyad.stats
Dyad inherits the warnings and errors used in scipy.stats.
