Line Plot from Scientific Research

Evolution of pre-merger estimates for GW170817 (black) and GW170817-like simulations injected into different noise levels (colours). We display the 90% credible sky area, the standard deviation of the chirp mass, the accumulated signal-to-noise and the log(Bayes factor) in the natural unit of information (nat) comparing the signal and noise models. All of these quantities are inferred with a latency of around 1 s. Dotted lines represent the 10th/90th percentiles. We impose a minimum SNR 17 of 12.
