If you use (part of) these results in a scientific publication, we would greatly appreciate it if you would cite the source paper.

This work uses COMPAS to compute binary population properties (https://github.com/TeamCOMPAS/COMPAS/tree/master/docs).

*****************************

For each of our 4 model variations (0. Fiducial, 1. Stable accretion, 2. Common envelope accretion and 3. Combined) we provide 2 files:

1.) pythonSubmit.py file describing the initial conditions that were used to run the simulations

2.) COMPASOutput.h5 file, which contains the following datasets resulting from our simulations :
['systems',
 'doubleCompactObjects',
 'commonEnvelopes',
 ]

Detailed descriptions of these groups can be found in the accompanying README file.
