.. _setup: ============ Installation ============ This guide explains how to install the required components to run the Makefile and draw the GWTC-4 distribution. It is recommended to use `uv `_ to create and manage the virtual environment, which avoids dependency conflicts. .. note:: The model describes neutron stars and the primary black hole mass distribution as a broken power law between minimum and maximum masses, with two Gaussian peaks at :math:`\sim 10~M_\odot` and :math:`\sim 35~M_\odot`. The file includes the posterior values for mass, spin, and merger-rate hyperparameters. Using these hyperparameters, the model can be used to generate synthetic :term:`CBC` distributions under the GWTC-4 AllCBC_FullPop-4.0 population model. Here, we draw a distribution of one million samples to be used with the `observing-scenarios pipeline `_ together with ``ligo.skymap`` to simulate observing campaigns for upcoming runs. .. dropdown:: Requirements You will need the following: .. button-link:: https://colmtalbot.github.io/gwpopulation/ :color: info :shadow: gwpopulation :bdg-warning:`Python >= 3.11` .. dropdown:: Environment setup with uv .. code-block:: bash curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh uv sync ========================= Read the hyperparams file ========================= Below we provide a small script to read the FullPop-4.0 result file with **bilby** and extract the MAP (or ML) sample. :download:`fullpop4_hyperparams <../../scripts/fullpop4_hyperparams.py>` .. dropdown:: Show script :icon: code :animate: fade-in .. literalinclude:: ../../scripts/fullpop4_hyperparams.py :language: python :linenos: ================ Run the Pipeline ================ .. dropdown:: Running the pipeline Two equivalent options are available - choose one: .. tab-set:: .. tab-item:: Using uv directly Run commands without activating the environment explicitly: .. code-block:: bash uv run make .. tab-item:: Activating the uv environment Activate the ``.venv`` created by uv and run the pipeline: .. code-block:: bash source .venv/bin/activate make
