plot_dfn_constraints

macro_lightning.plot.plot_dfn_constraints(dfn_mass: Union[None, Sequence] = None, dfn_xsec: Union[None, Sequence] = None, dfn_upper: Union[None, Sequence] = None, label=False)[source]

Plot Constraints from Desert Fireball Network (DFN).

Constraints for low mass macros from the null observation of bright meteors formed by a passing macro, across two extensive networks of cameras built originally to observe meteorites. The parameter space that could be probed with planned upgrades to the existing array of cameras in one of these networks still currently in use, the Desert Fireball Network in Australia, is estimated [1].

Parameters

dfn_xsecndarray, optional

N x 1 array for a fill_between if None (default) will load from data

dfn_upperndarray, optional

N x 1 array for a fill_between if None (default) will load from data

Returns
PolyCollection
Other Parameters
