Burst data

[tritemio]

I'd like to extract the burst data after a burstsearch and store it in a file. As far as I can see, the burst start and stop information is stored in the burstlib.data object. How can I add the detection channel and excitation period information?

I recommend exporting all the burst data in a pandas DataFrame with the function:

bext.burst_data

For your info, the core burst data is in Data.mburst (a list of Bursts objects). Bursts object contain minimal information such as burst start/stop and a few other properties. Keep in mind that Bursts gives counts with no correction, and burst durations and times in timestamps_units.

Conversely bext.burst_data returns corrected counts in all the different stream, times in milliseconds and basically all the burst information contained in additional Data attributes (including background in each stream).

Also, one of FRETBursts notebooks shows how to export burst data and timestamps in each burst:
