pint.binaryconvert.convert_binary

pint.binaryconvert.convert_binary(model, output, NHARMS=3, useSTIGMA=False, KOM=<Quantity 0. deg>)

Convert between binary models

Input models can be from BinaryDD, BinaryDDS, BinaryDDGR, BinaryBT, BinaryDDK, BinaryELL1, BinaryELL1H, BinaryELL1k, BinaryDDH

Output models can be from BinaryDD, BinaryDDS, BinaryBT, BinaryDDK, BinaryELL1, BinaryELL1H, BinaryELL1k, BinaryDDH

Parameters:

• model (pint.models.timing_model.TimingModel) –

• output (str) – Output model type

• NHARMS (int, optional) – Number of harmonics (ELL1H only)

• useSTIGMA (bool, optional) – Whether to use STIGMA or H4 (ELL1H only)

• KOM (astropy.units.Quantity) – Longitude of the ascending node (DDK only)

Returns:

outmodel

Return type:

pint.models.timing_model.TimingModel

Notes

Default value in pint for NHARMS is 7, while in tempo2 it is 4.
