COMPAS evolution statusΒΆ

Following is a list of COMPAS evolution status numbers, corresponding symbolic name, and meaning:

  1. DONE
    Simulation completed without error

  2. ERROR
    Evolution stopped because an error occurred

  3. TIMES_UP
    Evolution stopped because the allowed time was exhausted

  4. STEPS_UP
    Evolution stopped because the allowed number of timesteps was exhausted

  5. NO_TIMESTEPS_READ
    Evolution stopped because there was an error reading the user-provided timesteps

  6. TIMESTEPS_EXHAUSTED
    The user-provided timesteps were exhausted before evolution was complete - default timesteps used

  7. TIMESTEPS_NOT_CONSUMED
    Evolution completed before all user-provided timesteps were consumed

  8. SSE_ERROR
    Evolution stopped because an error occurred while evolving one of the constituent stars of a binary star

  9. BINARY_ERROR
    Evolution stopped because an error occurred while evolving a binary star

  10. DCO_MERGER_TIME
    Evolution stopped because the the evolution time exceeded DCO merger (formation + coalescence) time

  11. STARS_TOUCHING
    Evolution stopped because the constituent stars of a binary star are touching

  12. STELLAR_MERGER
    Evolution stopped because the constituent stars of a binary star merged

  13. STELLAR_MERGER_AT_BIRTH
    Evolution stopped because the constituent stars of a binary star merged at birth

  14. DCO
    Evolution stopped because a double compact object formed

  15. WD_WD
    Evolution stopped because a double white dwarf formed

  16. MASSLESS_REMNANT
    Evolution stopped because a massless remnant formed

  17. UNBOUND
    Evolution stopped because the binary star became unbound

  18. NOT_STARTED
    Simulation not started - not complete

  19. STARTED
    Simulation started - not complete
