NHPP-for-FRBs

Description

This code implements the non-homogeneous poisson process model for estimating the rate of fast radio bursts. It includes modeling terms for the distribution of events in the Universe and the detection sensitivity of the radio telescopes and arrays used in observation. The model is described in LA-UR-16-26261. This paper has been submitted to The Astronomical Journal.

Getting Started

This code assumes knowledge of the R Language. Place the two files in the same directory. Start R and set this directory as the working directory. Type source('frb.rate.fit.R') at the R prompt.
