Detectors (Position/Orientation/Shape)

To setting the properties of a given detector, create a python dictionary with the following entries:

{"name","lon","lat","rot","shape"}
Parameters:
  • name (str) – Name of detector among (“ET”,”CE”,”CE_20km”,”CE_40km”,”LIGO”,”Virgo”,”KAGRA”);

  • lon (float) – Longitude;

  • lat (float) – Latitude;

  • rot (float) – Orientation anti-clockwise starting in 0° from the detector bissetiz aligned to the Noth-South direction;

  • shape (float) – Openning angle of the interferometer’s arms.

Example:

detector = {"name":"ET","lon":5,"lat":10,"rot":45,"shape":60}
