The Fourier and wavelet power spectrum of the 1D velocity field for baryonic fluid. The left vertical axis is for the Fourier power spectrum, and the right axis is for the wavelet power spectrum. The wavelet energy spectrum is also shown for comparison. The data is taken from the IllustrisTNG simulation."

Three different smoothing functions and their corresponding wavelets. Upper left panel: Gaussian (red line), Meyer scaling (blue line) and Epanechnikov (green line) function in real space. Upper right panel: the wavelet functions derived from these smoothing functions. Lower left panel: Fourier transforms of the three smoothing functions. Lower right panel: Fourier transforms of the wavelets derived from the corresponding smoothing functions."

The relationship between our wavelet power spectrum and the traditional CWT power spectrum. Upper panel: the Gaussian-derived wavelet power spectrum Sd(w) (red line), and the traditional wavelet power spectrum ${S}_{{\rm{d}}}^{t}(a=1/w)$ (blue line). Lower panel: the ratio of ${S}_{{\rm{d}}}^{t}(w)$ to LbwSd(w)."
