LaTeX

LaTeX Typesetting

Figure titles, axis labels and annotations all accept LaTeX directives for rendering mathematical formulas and notation, when the entire label is surrounded by dollar signs $...$. This rendering is handled by the MathJax library (version 2.7.5), which must be loaded in the environment where figures are being rendered. MathJax is included by default in Jupyter-like environments, but when embedding Plotly figures in other contexts it may be required to ensure that MathJax is separately loaded, for example via a <script> tag pointing to a content-delivery network (CDN).

fig = px.line(x=[1, 2, 3, 4], y=[1, 4, 9, 16], title=r'$\alpha_{1c} = 352 \pm 11 \text{ km s}^{-1}$')
fig.update_layout(
    xaxis_title=r'$\sqrt{(n_\text{c}(t|{T_\text{early}}))}$',
    yaxis_title=r'$d, r \text{ (solar radius)}$'
)
