gwcelery.tasks.em_bright module

This module computes the probabilities that there is a neutron star in the binary, and that the coalescence event resulted in creation of tidally disrupted matter.

The result is returned in the form of a JSON file:

‘{“HasNS”: 1.0, “HasRemnant”: 1.0}’

  • HasNS: The probability that at least one of the component masses

    in the binary is a neutron star. The definition of a neutron star in this context simply means an object with mass less than 3.0 solar mass.

  • HasRemnant: The probability that the binary system can produce

    tidally disrupted matter during coalescence. This is computed using the fitting formula in arXiv:1807.00011 We are currently using an extremely stiff equation of state (2H) to compute the compactness of the neutron star. This results in a higher chance of labelling a systems with non-zero HasRemnant value.

Qualitative source properties for CBC events.

(task)gwcelery.tasks.em_bright.em_bright_posterior_samples(posterior_file_content)[source]

Returns the probability of having a NS component and remnant using Bilby posterior samples.

Parameters:

posterior_file_content (hdf5 posterior file content) –

Returns:

JSON formatted string storing HasNS, HasRemnant, and HasMassGap probabilities

Return type:

str

Examples

>>> em_bright_posterior_samples(GraceDb().files('S190930s',
... 'Bilby.posterior_samples.hdf5').read())
{"HasNS": 0.014904901243599122, "HasRemnant": 0.0, "HasMassGap": 0.0}
(task)gwcelery.tasks.em_bright.source_properties(mass1, mass2, spin1z, spin2z, snr)[source]

Returns the probability of having a NS component, the probability of having non-zero disk mass, and the probability of any component being the lower mass gap for the detected event.

Parameters:
  • mass1 (float) – Primary mass in solar masses

  • mass2 (float) – Secondary mass in solar masses

  • spin1z (float) – Dimensionless primary aligned spin component

  • spin2z (float) – Dimensionless secondary aligned spin component

  • snr (float) – Signal to noise ratio

Returns:

JSON formatted string storing HasNS, HasRemnant, and HasMassGap` probabilities

Return type:

str

Examples

>>> em_bright.source_properties(2.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 10.)
'{"HasNS": 1.0, "HasRemnant": 1.0, "HasMassGap"}'
