7 | 9 | [//]: ## (Outline features) |
8 | 10 | COMPAS is a publicly available rapid binary population synthesis code (https://compas.science/) that is designed so that evolution prescriptions and model parameters are easily |
9 | 11 | adjustable. COMPAS draws properties for a binary star system from a set of initial distributions, and evolves it from zero-age main sequence to the end of its life as two compact |
10 | 12 | remnants. It has been used for inference from observations of gravitational-wave mergers, Galactic neutron stars, X-ray binaries, and luminous red novae. |
