title: Data set from: Rates of Compact Object Coalescences

description: <strong>Data from: Rates of Compact Object Coalescence</strong> <strong>Brief overview: </strong><br> This Zenodo entry contains the data that has been used to make the figures for the living review "Rates of Compact Object Coalescence" by Ilya Mandel & Floor Broekgaarden (2021). To reproduce the figures, download all the <strong>*.csv</strong> files and run the jupyter notebook created to reproduce the results in the publicly available Github directory https://github.com/FloorBroekgaarden/Rates_of_Compact_Object_Coalescence (the exact jupyter notebook can be found here) For any suggestions, questions or inquiry, please email one, or both, of the authors: <strong>Ilya Mandel</strong>: <em>ilya.mandel@monash.edu</em> <strong>Floor Broekgaarden</strong>: <em>floor.broekgaarden@cfa.harvard.edu</em> We very much welcome suggestions for additional/missing literature with rate predictions or measurements. <strong>Extra figures:</strong><br> Extra figures that can be used can be found here: <strong>Vertical figures: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1GqJ0k2zpnxBGwIYNeQ0BfsLSU7H2942gspL-PN_iaJY/edit?usp=sharing </strong><br> <br> The authors are currently working on making an interactive tool for plotting the rates that will be available soon. In the mean time, feel free to send requests for plots/figures to the authors. <strong>Reference</strong><br> If you use this data/code for publication, please cite both the paper: Mandel & Broekgaarden (in prep. 2021) and the dataset on Zenodo through it's doi (see tabs on the right of this zenodo entry) <br> <br> <strong>Details datafiles: </strong> The PDF COC_rates_supplementary_material.pdf attached (and in the Github repository) describes how each of the rates in the data files of this Zenodo entry are retrieved. The other 26 files are .csv files, where each csv file contains the rates from one specific double compact object type: NS-NS, NS-BH or BH-BH, and specific rate group (isolated binary evolution, gravitational wave observations etc.). The files in this entry are: COC_rates_supplementary_material.pdf # PDF document describing how the rates were retrieved from each study<br> BH-BH_rates_CHE.csv # BH-BH rates for chemically homogeneous evolution BH-BH_rates_globular-clusters.csv # BH-BH rates for dynamical formation in globular clusters BH-BH_rates_isolated-binary-evolution.csv # BH-BH rates for isolated binary evolution BH-BH_rates_nuclear-clusters.csv # BH-BH rates for (dynamical )formation in (active) nuclear star clusters BH-BH_rates_observations-GWs.csv # BH-BH rates for observations from gravitational waves BH-BH_rates_population-III.csv # BH-BH rates for population-III stars BH-BH_rates_primordial.csv # BH-BH rates for primordial formation BH-BH_rates_triples.csv. # BH-BH rates for formation in (hierarchical) triples BH-BH_rates_young-stellar-clusters.csv # BH-BH rates for dynamical formation in young/open star clusters <br> NS-BH_rates_CHE.csv # NS-BH rates for chemically homogeneous evolution NS-BH_rates_globular-clusters.csv # NS-BH rates for dynamical formation in globular clusters NS-BH_rates_isolated-binary-evolution.csv. # NS-BH rates for isolated binary evolution NS-BH_rates_nuclear-clusters.csv # NS-BH rates for (dynamical )formation in (active) nuclear star clusters NS-BH_rates_observations-GWs.csv # NS-BH rates for observations from gravitational waves NS-BH_rates_population-III.csv # NS-BH rates for population-III stars NS-BH_rates_triples.csv # NS-BH rates for formation in (hierarchical) triples NS-BH_rates_young-stellar-clusters.csv # BH-BH rates for dynamical formation in young/open star clusters<br> NS-NS_rates_globular-clusters.csv # NS-NS rates for dynamical formation in globular clusters NS-NS_rates_isolated-binary-evolution.csv # NS-NS rates for isolated binary evolution NS-NS_rates_nuclear-clusters.csv # NS-NS rates for (dynamical )formation in (active) nuclear star clusters NS-NS_rates_observations-GWs.csv # NS-NS rates for observations from gravitational waves NS-NS_rates_observations-kilonovae.csv # NS-NS rates for observations from kilonovae NS-NS_rates_observations-pulsars.csv # NS-NS rates for observations from Galactic pulsars NS-NS_rates_observations-sGRBs.csv # NS-NS rates for observations short gamma-ray bursts NS-NS_rates_triples.csv # NS-NS rates for formation in (hierarchical) triples NS-NS_rates_young-stellar-clusters.csv # NS-NS rates for dynamical formation in young/open star clusters <strong>Each csv file contains the following header: </strong><br> ADS year # year of the paper in the ADS entry<br> ADS month # month of the paper in the ADS entry <br> ADS abstract link # link to the ADS abstract <br> ArXiv link # link to the ArXiv version of the paper <br> First Author # name of the first author<br> label string # label of the study, that corresponds to the label in the figure<br> code (optional) # name of the code used in this study <br> type of limit (for plotting, see jupyter notebook for a dictionary) # integer, that is used to map to a certain limit visualization in the plot (e.g. scatter points vs upper limit). Each entry takes two columns in the csv files. One for the rates (quoted under the header 'rate [Gpc^-3 yr^-1]') and one for "notes" where we sometimes added notes about the rates (such as whether it is an upper or lower limit).
