plot_style — Publication-quality Matplotlib style

Matplotlib style baseline for publication-quality figures.

Usage (at the top of every paper-figure notebook):

from foregrounds_diffusion.plot_style import apply, WONG apply(fig_width_pt=246.0) # MNRAS single column apply(fig_width_pt=510.0, n_cols=2) # MNRAS double column

Save convention (always PDF primary, PNG backup):

fig.savefig(FIGURES_DIR / “fig01_cib_fullsky.pdf”) fig.savefig(FIGURES_DIR / “fig01_cib_fullsky.png”, dpi=300)

foregrounds_diffusion.plot_style.apply(fig_width_pt=246.0, n_cols=1)[source]

Set rcParams for publication-quality figures.

Parameters:

  • fig_width_pt – Journal text width in points. 246 pt ≈ MNRAS single column; 510 pt ≈ MNRAS double column. Pass the LaTeX textwidth value.

  • n_cols – Figure column span (1 or 2). Width is multiplied accordingly so fig_width_pt=246, n_cols=2 gives a figure spanning both columns.

Return type:

list[str]

Returns:

list[str] – The WONG colour palette, for convenience (avoids a second import).

Parameters:

  • fig_width_pt (float)

  • n_cols (int)
