Tutorial: How to create periodograms and identify significant peaks? #11

Closed ojhall94 closed 4 years ago

ojhall94 commented 4 years ago

This notebook will form part of the series: Science Examples - Stellar Physics.

In this first notebook, we will focus on downloading a light curve and converting it to a periodogram. I'll keep it relatively simple, and focus on the properties of the frequency domain, which may be new to many users.

We can draw inspiration from existing Lightkurve tutorials:

I think its worth our time to work on a periodogram focused introductory tutorial that follows the style of the other tutorials in this series more closely, so that it becomes a bit more pedagogical, where the lightkurve tutorials are more focused on Lightkurve's capabilities specifically.

Learning Goals:

This one's ready to be looked at I think!

Thanks so much for this great tutorial @ojhall.

We recently decided to remove the "Defining terms" sections from the notebooks. (I can't remember if you were on the telecon when we made that decision.) To aid final copy-editing, I went ahead and wove some of the excellent explanations that existed in the Glossary into the tutorial content. I did this for aliasing, nyquist frequency, and eclipsing binaries.

I also made sure the "Additional resources" section did not contain key information that should be woven into the main content, and removed that section as well per our new template.

Other than that, I believe this notebook is ready for copy editing!

@ojhall94 and @barentsen I finished copy editing this tutorial and it was in great shape! As per the template, I combined the summary into the Introduction section, reordered the first few sections, and then made small copy editing changes throughout. This one is all set on my end and ready to go!
