The argument $\phi$ of the cross spectrum is the phase between those two signals. The time lag can be computed from the phase using equation \ref{eq:timelag}. An empirical fit of the time delay in frequency space can be produced, and then transformed to the time domain. The average time delay can be obtained from this new function, but this function describes more fully the time-dependent response of the reprocessed lightcurve. Composing the many specific time-dependent responses into a single function $g(t,\lambda)$ provides the desired description of the reveberation in the system. + + \begin{equation} + \tau(\nu) = \frac{\phi(\nu)}{2\pi\nu}. + \label{eq:timelag} + \end{equation} + + + \subsection{Computational Details} + \label{subsec:computation} + + \begin{figure} + \centering + \includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{tophat_timedomain.pdf}[A] + \includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{tophat_freqdomain.pdf}[B] + \caption{[A] Tophat transfer functions in the time domain show an average time lag of the reverberating curve and a constant distribution in time over an interval.
