Read

This page contains the documentation for ‘read.py’. This module provides functions to read single or multi-detector injection files, load glitches and gravitational waves, and return the time series data.

Function Definitions

GlitchPop.read.single_ifo(file_name)

Reads a single IFO injection file with glitches and gravitational waves. This should only be used if reading files not generated from the tri-dector simulators.

Parameters:

• file_name (string) - Name of the .json injection file

Returns:

• gwpy.timeseries.TimeSeries - Strain h(t) loaded from the injection file

GlitchPop.read.tri_ifo(file_name)

Reads a multi-detector injection file with glitches and gravitational waves. The multi-detector reader should be used to perserve the gravitational wave time offset between different detectors in the tri-detector simulations. If it is not used for reading tri-dector simulations, the gravitional wave signals will all have the same merger time across the network.

Parameters:

• file_name (string) - Name of the .json injection file

Returns:

• gwpy.timeseries.TimeSeries - Strain h(t) loaded from the injection file
