Introduction

This notebook is a companion to Afle & Brown (2020) posted at arxiv:2010.00719. In the paper we investigate the ability of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic Explorer 1, and Cosmic Explorer 2 to measure the physical propeties of core-collapse supernovae through its gravitational-wave radiation. This notebook demonstrates the three salient results of this work:

  1. Principal components that form our waveform model. The principal components are stored in principal_components.hdf.

  2. The map between the model parameters (principal components and their coefficients) and physical parameters (core rotation rate $\beta$ and postbounce oscillation frequency $f_{peak}$).

  3. Extracting the posteriors of model parameters from posterior files and using the map to transform these posteriors of physical parameters.

Runing this notebook in a Docker container

This notebook can be run from a PyCBC Docker container, or a machine with PyCBC installed. Instructions for downloading the docker container are available from the PyCBC home page. To start a container with instance of Jupyter notebook, run the commands

docker pull pycbc/pycbc-el7:v1.16.9
docker run -p 8888:8888 --name pycbc_notebook -it pycbc/pycbc-el7:v1.16.9 /bin/bash -l

Once the container has started, this git repository can be downloaded with the command:

git clone https://github.com/sugwg/sn-core-bounce-pe.git

The notebook server can be started inside the container with the command:

jupyter notebook --ip 0.0.0.0 --no-browser

You can then connect to the notebook server at the URL printed by jupyter. Navigate to the directory sn-core-bounce-pe in the cloned git repository and open data_release.ipynb, the notebook that demonstrates use of these reults.
