`pulsar` – Creates/stores a pulsar object¶

class pulsar.Pulsar¶

Pulsar.__init__([period, dm, gl, gb, galCoords, r0, dtrue, lum_1400, spindex, alpha, rho, width_degree, snr, beaming, scindex, gpsFlag, gpsA, brokenFlag, brokenSI])¶: Initialise the pulsar object

Pulsar.s_1400()¶

Returns the flux at 1400 MHz, calculated as

$S_{\rm{1400}} = \frac{L_{\rm{1400}}}{D_{\rm{true}}^2}$

Pulsar.width_ms()¶

Returns the pulse width in milliseconds, calculated as

$W_{\rm{ms}} = P_{\rm{ms}} \times W_{\rm{degree}} / 360$
