Function Documentation

◆ XLALisLISAdetector()

BOOLEAN XLALisLISAdetector ( const LALDetector * det )

Return true if 'det' is a LISA LALDetector struct.

Definition at line 65 of file LISAspecifics.c.

◆ XLALregisterLISAdetectors()

int XLALregisterLISAdetectors ( const CHAR prefixLetter )

Set up the LALDetector structs representing LISA X, Y, Z TDI observables.

Detectors will be registered with prefixes beginning with 'prefixLetter'.

Definition at line 75 of file LISAspecifics.c.

◆ XLALprecomputeLISAarms()

int XLALprecomputeLISAarms ( DetectorState * detState )

Precompute the arm-geometry for LISA, which is later used for assembling the RAA detector-tensor (which depends on frequency and skyposition.

Definition at line 150 of file LISAspecifics.c.

◆ XLALgetLISADetectorTensorLWL()

int XLALgetLISADetectorTensorLWL	(	SymmTensor3 *	detT,
		const Detector3Arms	detArms,
		CHAR	channelNum
	)

Parameters

[out]	detT	: LISA LWL detector-tensor
[in]	detArms	precomputed detector-arms
	channelNum	channel-number (as a char) '1', '2', '3' ..

Definition at line 235 of file LISAspecifics.c.

◆ XLALgetLISADetectorTensorRAA()

int XLALgetLISADetectorTensorRAA	(	CmplxDetectorTensor *	detT,
		const Detector3Arms	detArms,
		CHAR	channelNum,
		const FreqSkypos_t *	freq_skypos
	)
