Trapezoid1DKernel

class astropy.convolution.Trapezoid1DKernel(width, slope=1.0, **kwargs)

Bases: astropy.convolution.Kernel1D

1D trapezoid kernel.

Parameters:

width : number

Width of the filter kernel, defined as the width of the constant part, before it begins to slope down.

slope : number

Slope of the filter kernel’s tails

mode : str, optional

One of the following discretization modes:

• ‘center’ (default)

  Discretize model by taking the value at the center of the bin.

• ‘linear_interp’

  Discretize model by linearly interpolating between the values at the corners of the bin.

• ‘oversample’

  Discretize model by taking the average on an oversampled grid.

• ‘integrate’

  Discretize model by integrating the model over the bin.

factor : number, optional

Factor of oversampling. Default factor = 10.
