Arrival Times Method (v0.11.0)

This release adds a module arrivaltimes that can be used to perform sub-burst slope measurements of FRBs using the arrival time of the pulse in each frequency channel. This was primarily written to handle ultra-FRBs (FRBs with durations on the order of μs) but works for FRBs in general.

This module is meant for scripting and is mostly independent of the GUI.

• Paper: "High precision spectro-temporal analysis of ultra-fast radio bursts using per-channel arrival times", https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.12404. Includes a description of the method as well as measurements of hundreds of bursts.
• Documentation: https://frbgui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/documentation/doc-arrivaltimes.html

Full Changelog: v0.10.0...v0.11.0

v0.10.0 Tutorials and Documentation, Rewrite for DPG 1.9.2

What's Changed

• Added tutorials and documentation available at https://frbgui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
  • First tutorial describes how FRB data can be loaded and prepared and should be a good introduction for anyone wanting to work with FRB data, with or without FRBGui
  • Second tutorial describes how to perform measurements in FRBGui using two different FRBs.
  • Output csv columns are now documented (thanks to Dr. Sofia Sheikh for starting and filling most of the table)
• Faster fit finding by using the previous fit found as the initial guess for the next DM
  • update the starting parameter (p0) to fit the 2D Gaussian. by @aishk07 in #25
• Major rewrite to update to DearPy Gui 1.9.2 (8fe1409). This was necessary for running on newer apple silicon machines and for future maintainability as the previously used version of DearPy Gui (0.6.415) is undocumented and unmaintained.
• Remove research files to separate repository
• Normalize data when finding fits
• Quality of Life fixes for Masking and Burst Regions:
  • Can now mask after downsampling
  • Adding regions will default to "Burst" after the "Background" is specified and will start at the end of the previous region by default

New Contributors

• @aishk07 made their first contribution in #25
