Rapid Stellar and Binary Population Synthesis with COMPAS

Compact Object Mergers: Population Astrophysics and Statistics (COMPAS; https://compas.science) is a public rapid binary population synthesis code. COMPAS generates populations of isolated stellar binaries under set parametrized assumptions in order to allow comparisons against observational data sets, such as those coming from gravitational-wave observations merging compact remnants. It includes number tools for processing addition the core evolution components. publicly available via github repository https://github.com/TeamCOMPAS/COMPAS/, designed flexible modifications evolutionary models improve. This paper describes methodology implementation COMPAS. living document which will be updated new features are added COMPAS; current v02.21.00.
