bilby.gw.detector.get_safe_signal_duration(mass_1, mass_2, a_1, a_2, tilt_1, tilt_2, flow=10)[source]

Calculate the safe signal duration, given the parameters

Parameters:
mass_1, mass_2, a_1, a_2, tilt_1, tilt_2: float

The signal parameters

flow: float

The lower frequency cutoff from which to calculate the signal duration

Returns:
safe_signal_duration: float

The shortest safe signal duration (i.e., the signal duration rounded up to the nearest power of 2)
