The Mass Distribution of Companions to Low-Mass White Dwarfs

In this fileset, we include samples from the posterior distribution of a model describing the mass distribution of companions to low mass white dwarfs in binary stellar systems. We also provide a python script to determine the companion mass distribution and neutron star probability based on these posterior samples. The method is described in Andrews, Price-Whelan, & Agüeros (2014), ApJ, 797L, 32.本文件集包含了描述双星系统（binary stellar systems）中低质量白矮星（low mass white dwarfs）伴星质量分布的模型的后验分布（posterior distribution）采样样本。此外，我们还提供了一份Python脚本，可基于上述后验采样样本计算伴星质量分布与中子星概率。该方法的详细说明参见Andrews、Price-Whelan与Agüeros（2014），ApJ，797L，32。
