Self Lensing simulations of WD-NS and WD-BH pairs

These are netCDF files, created using python/xarray. They contain the simulation results gotten from running the self_lens package (https://github.com/guynir42/self_lens) with a few surveys (ZTF, TESS, LSST, DECAM, CURIOS, CURIOS_ARRAY, LAST) over simulated binaries containing a white dwarf (WD) and either a Neutron Star (NS) or a Black Hole (BH). The two companion types are equivalent for these simulations, except that black holes are more massive than neutron stars. Each file contains the results for the number of detections and effective volume for one survey, over a large parameter space of WD-NS or WD-BH binaries. For each binary we simulate the self-lensing flare and estimate the ability of a survey to observe that flare, at different distances of the system from Earth. These datasets are needed to make the plots for an upcoming paper (Nir & Bloom, in prep). In the self_lens package, run the test_produce_plots.py to pull down these files to a local folder and use them to make plots. An accompanying dataset includes the same files for WD-WD binaries.
