Possibility and properties of Electromagnetically-bright sources of gravitational-wave events

Project description

ligo.em_bright

This library provides the tools to compute the possibility of merging gravitational-wave binaries to have an electromagnetic counterpart or having a component in the lower mass-gap region. The data products are source properties

  • HasNS: The mass of at least one of the compact binary coalescence is consistent with a neutron star.
  • HasRemnant: A non-zero amount of remnant matter remained outside the final compact object (a necessary but not sufficient condition to produce certain kinds of electromagnetic emission such as a short GRB or a kilonova).
  • HasMassGap: The mass of at least one of the compact binary coalescence is consistent with lower mass-gap region i.e. between 3-5 solar mass.

The HasNS and HasRemnant quantities depend on, and are marginalized over, several neutron star equations of state (EOS). The marginalization is done using data from GW170817.
