MCMC samples for X-ray spectra fits summarised in the paper "A strangely light neutron star"
收藏资源简介:
Posterior samples for NS mass and radius described based on fitting of XMM-Newton and Suzaku spectra of the CCO in HESS J1731-347 and described in the paper the paper "A strangely light neutron star" (DOI: 10.21203/rs.3.rs-1509469/v1). Two files uploaded contain posterior samples based based a) on fitting X-ray data alone using single temperature carbon atmosphere model and Gaia parallax priors (xray_only_carbatm.txt) b) on fitting the same X-ray data but including also all additional priors described in the main text and full priors on distance rather than inverted parallax value (full_priors_carbatm.txt) in addition a file with updated weights for EOSs used by Dietrich et al 2021 (2020Sci...370.1450D, available on https://github.com/diettim/NMMA) which take into the account constrains from X-ray spectral fitting presented in our work for the CCO and constrains based on modeling of the 4U 1702-429 bursts reported by Nattila et al 2017 (2017A&A...608A..31N) are included in file chiralEFT_MTOV_NICER_GW170817_AT2017gfo_cco_weights.txt. This file is based on and has the same syntax as file chiralEFT_MTOV_NICER_GW170817_AT2017gfo_weighting.dat provided by Dietrich et al 2021 available on https://github.com/diettim/NMMA along with the corresponding tabulated EOS files.
