kilopop.mappings.compute_equation_6(total_binary_mass, prompt_collapse_threshold_mass)[source]

Compute equation 6 from Setzer et al. 2022.

Compute the remnant disk mass from Radice et al. (2018b) and Coughlin et al. (2019), as referenced in the accompanying paper.

Parameters:
  • total_binary_mass (float or array) – The total mass [solar masses] of the neutron star binary.

  • prompt_collapse_threshold_mass (float) – The prompt collapse threshold mass for the given EOS.

Returns:

remnant_disk_mass – The mass [solar masses] of the remnant disk after merger.

Return type:

float or array
