Dataset from: Impact of Massive Binary Star and Cosmic Evolution on Gravitational Wave Observations I: Black Hole -- Neutron Star Mergers

The data for all simulations shown in "Impact of Massive Binary Star and Cosmic Evolution on Gravitational Wave Observations I: Black Hole - Neutron Star Mergers".  https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.02608 

Contents: 

14 zip files that each contain an hdf5 file with the raw data for one of the simulations from Table 2 in the paper. The only exception is the fiducial.zip file, which contains both the fiducial and 'optimistic CE' data file.
These zip files are: 

fiducial.zip,  the Fiducial model (A) and Optimistic CE model (H)

massTransferEfficiencyFixed_0_25.zip, the \(\beta\) = 0.25 model (B) 

massTransferEfficiencyFixed_0_5.zip, the \(\beta\) = 0.5 model (C) 

massTransferEfficiencyFixed_0_75.zip, the \(\beta\) = 0.75 model (D)

unstableCaseBB.zip, the unstable case BB mass transfer model (E) 

alpha0_5.zip, the \(\alpha = 0.5\) model (F) 

alpha2_0.zip, the \(\alpha = 2.0\) model (G) 

rapid.zip, the rapid SN model (I) 

maxNSmass2_0.zip, the max \(m_{\rm{NS}} = 2\, \rm{M}_{\odot}\) model (J) 

maxNSmass3_0.zip, the max \(m_{\rm{NS}} = 3\, \rm{M}_{\odot}\) model (K)

noPISN.zip, the no PISN model (L) 

ccSNkick_100km_s.zip, the \(\sigma_{\rm{cc}}\)= 100 km/s model (M) 

ccSNkick_30km_s.zip, the \(\sigma_{\rm{cc}}\)= 30 km/s model (N)

 noBHkick.zip, the no BH SN kick model (O)

3 zip files with summarized data of the BHNS rates. These are the only files needed to reproduce Figures 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 15.  

SummarizedRates.zip, contains several csv data files with all the rates to make figures 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13
these files can also be used as a Table to look up specific rates for certain models. See github for demos.

distributionQuantiles.zip, csv file with distribution quantiles for all models needed for Figure 13. 

GWTC_Quantiles.zip, distribution quantile values for the detected BHNS mergers in the GWTC-2 catalog. Needed to make the error bars of the GWTC observed gravitational-wave sources in Fgure 13.

Details of how to use the data (a readme),  as well as scripts to reproduce all results, plots, and figures from the paper are given in the accompanying Github repository https://github.com/FloorBroekgaarden/BlackHole-NeutronStar
