astro.setupMasses

nucleardatapy.astro.setup_masses.masses_obss(source)

Return a list of observations for a given source and print them all on the prompt.

Parameters:

source (str.) – The source for which there are different observations.

Returns:

The list of observations. If source == ‘J1614–2230’: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Return type:

list[str].

nucleardatapy.astro.setup_masses.masses_sources()

Return a list of the astrophysical sources for which a mass is given

Returns:

The list of sources.

Return type:

list[str].

class nucleardatapy.astro.setup_masses.setupMasses(source='J1614–2230', obs=1)

Instantiate the observational mass for a given source and obs.

This choice is defined in the variables source and obs.

source can chosen among the following ones: ‘J1614–2230’.

obs depends on the chosen source.

Parameters:

• source (str, optional.) – Fix the name of source. Default value: ‘J1614–2230’.

• obs (str, optional.) – Fix the obs. Default value: 1.

Attributes:

label

Attribute providing the label the data is references for figures.

latexCite

sig_lo

Attribute the negative uncertainty.

sig_up

Attribute the positive uncertainty.

class nucleardatapy.astro.setup_masses.setupMassesAverage(source='J1614–2230')

Instantiate the observational mass for a given source and averaged over obs.

This choice is defined in the variable source.

source can chosen among the following ones: ‘J1614–2230’.

Parameters:

source (str, optional.) – Fix the name of source. Default value: ‘J1614–2230’.

Attributes:

print_output()

Method which print outputs on terminal’s screen.

Here is a figure which is produced with the Python sample: /nucleardatapy_sample/astro_setupMasses_plot.py

The masses measured for massive neutron stars is radio-astronomy. The different colors correspond to the different sources.
