LIGO-Virgo Cumulative Event/Candidate Rate Plot O1-O3

Abstract:

A plot of event/candidate vs day count for O1-O3 (inclusive). The O1 and O2 data are events, while O3 are the public alert candidates that haven't been retracted.

The main file is a stair step plot. The other files are a matlab plotting script and the input file 'events' (x is the day counter since the start of O1, y is the event counter). New events need to be added by hand to the MATLAB script using YYYYMMDD format. Color shading - red for O1, green for O2, purple for O3a, orange for O3b. Plot filenames now reflect the latest event added in YYMMDD format.
