Prior distributions for the model parameters.
| Parameter | Meaning | Distribution |
|---|---|---|
| tp | peak of the skew-Gaussian | 𝒰(0, 60) |
| log(Am) | log-amplitude of the skew-Gaussian | 𝒰(5, 15) |
| log(σrise) | log of the rise time of the skew-Gaussian | 𝒰(−1, 3.5) |
| log(σfall) | log of the fall time of the skew-Gaussian | 𝒰(1, 4.0) |
| log(νc) | log of the QPO centroid frequency | 𝒰(log(1),log(3)) |
| log(AQPO) | log-amplitude for the QPO | 𝒰(2, 40) |
| log(CQPO) | log-width for the QPO | 𝒰(−20, 40) |
| log(ARN) | log-amplitude for the red noise | 𝒰(2, 40) |
| log(CRN) | log-width for the red noise | 𝒰(−20, 40) |
| log(α) | logarithm of the AR parameters | 𝒰(−20, 20) |
| log(β) | logarithm of the MA parameters | 𝒰(2, 20) |
Notes. 𝒰(a, b) corresponds to a uniform prior distribution between limits (a, b). The first four parameters describe the skew-Gaussian mean function, followed by three parameters describing the QPO, and finally two parameters describing a DRW stochastic process. We also include priors for the CARMA(2,1) model considered in Section 5.4.
