Rapid Stellar and Binary Population Synthesis with COMPAS
Abstract Compact Object Mergers: Population Astrophysics and Statistics (COMPAS; https://compas.science ) is a public rapid binary population synthesis code. COMPAS generates populations of isolated stellar binaries under a set of parameterized assumptions in order to allow comparisons against observational data sets, such as those coming from gravitational-wave observations of merging …
