⁠Compact Object Mergers: Population Astrophysics & Statistics

COMPAS is a publicly available rapid binary population synthesis code (https://compas.science/⁠) that is designed so that evolution prescriptions and model parameters are easily adjustable. COMPAS draws properties for a binary star system from a set of initial distributions, and evolves it from zero-age main sequence to the end of its life as two compact remnants. It has been used for inference from observations of gravitational-wave mergers, Galactic neutron stars, X-ray binaries, and luminous red novae.

This docker build allows users to use COMPAS without installing it. For manual install of COMPAS, go to https://github.com/TeamCOMPAS/COMPAS⁠
