Ridgeline Plot
A ridgeline plot (also known as a joyplotThe name Joyplot is derived from the use of a Ridgeline plot of the intensity of pulses from a pulsar on the front of Joy Division Joy Division were an English Rock music, rock band formed in Salford in 1976. The group consisted of vocalist, guitarist and lyricist Ian Curtis, guitarist and keyboardist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook and drummer Stephen Morris (musici ...'s album Unknown Pleasures.) is a series of line plots that are combined by vertical stacking to allow the easy visualization of changes through space or time. The plots are often overlapped slightly to allow the changes to be more clearly contrasted.https://r-graph-gallery.com/294-basic-ridgeline-plot.html Notes References {{Statistics, descriptive Statistical charts and diagrams ...

Pulsar
A pulsar (''pulsating star, on the model of quasar'') is a highly magnetized rotating neutron star that emits beams of electromagnetic radiation out of its Poles of astronomical bodies#Magnetic poles, magnetic poles. This radiation can be observed only when a beam of emission is pointing toward Earth (similar to the way a lighthouse can be seen only when the light is pointed in the direction of an observer), and is responsible for the pulsed appearance of emission. Neutron stars are very density, dense and have short, regular rotational Period (physics), periods. This produces a very precise interval between pulses that ranges from milliseconds to seconds for an individual pulsar. Pulsars are one of the candidates for the source of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (see also centrifugal mechanism of acceleration). Pulsars’ highly regular pulses make them very useful tools for astronomers. For example, observations of a pulsar in a PSR B1913+16, binary neutron star system were use ...

The album was recorded and mixed over three successive weekends at Stockport's Strawberry Studios in April 1979, with producer Martin Hannett contributing a number of unconventional recording techniques to the group's sound. The cover artwork was designed by artist Peter Saville, using a data plot of signals from a radio pulsar. It is the only Joy Division album released during lead singer Ian Curtis's lifetime. Factory Records did not release any singles from ''Unknown Pleasures''. In January 1980 the album placed at no.2 on the first publication of the Indie Albums Chart. It reached no.71 on the Albums Chart when reissued in July 1980 just after the release of the subsequent album '' Closer''.
