LensedGW/GW-LMC-Space: GW-LMC-Space

Overview

This repository provides mock catalogs of gravitational-wave (GW) sources for space-based detectors, including LISA and DECIGO. This catalog employs a multi-scale Halo Model approach, unifying lensing predictions across galaxy, group, and cluster scales while explicitly incorporating dark matter subhalos.

Key Features

•  Multiple source types of stellar-mass compact binary systems, as well as formation models of supermassive black holes, are included.
•  Lensing effects are modeled across a wide range of scales, from galaxies to clusters.
•  The original SNR distributions are provided.

Data Description

The catalogs are stored in CSV format.

File Description

* Intrinsic_source_catalogs: Stores the intrinsic source parameters, including masses, redshifts, etc.
* Original_lensing_parameters: Stores the full set of lensing parameters, including halo mass, lens redshift, etc.
* Lensed_gw_catalogs: Final catalogs of lensed GW events, including Morse index, event index, etc.

More details can be found in the `.md` files within each directory.
