ExoplanetsSysSim

Welcome to the ExoplanetsSysSim package for generating planetary systems and simulating observations of those systems with a transit survey. Currently, SysSim focuses on NASA's Kepler mission, but we've aimed to develop a generic framework that can be applied to other surveys (e.g., K2, TESS, PLATO, LSST, etc.).

How to get started:

  • Make sure you have julia and git installed.
  • If you want to use ssh keys instead of https authentication (to minimize typing your github password), then:
    • Setup a local ssh key using ssh-keygen
    • Tell Github about your ssh key: Person Icon (upper right), Settings, SSH & GPG keys, New SSH Key. Entry a name in the title box and paste the contents of cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into the "Key" box. Add SSH Key.
  • Run julia and install the ExoplanetsSysSim repo as a Julia package using the following command.
#!julia
   Pkg.clone("[email protected]:eford/ExoplanetsSysSim.jl.git")
  • If you are using windows, you might encoutner an issue with capitalization of package names.
  • If you have some issues with Blosc, you might need to follow the instructions here: JuliaIO/Blosc.jl#5

It's recommended that you run the setup script below that will attempt to install two related packages (ABC, CORBITS) that are often used in combination with ExoplanetsSysSim.

#!julia
   include(joinpath(Pkg.dir("ExoplanetsSysSim"),"src/setup.jl"))  
  • Optionally, run some tests, e.g.
#!julia
   using ExoplanetsSysSim
   include(joinpath(Pkg.dir("ExoplanetsSysSim"),"examples/basic/test.jl"))   
  • Change into the ExoplanetsSysSim directory (likely ~/.julia/v0.6/ExoplanetsSysSim or the similar appropriate path as the julia version increases).
  • Run some simple "applications" (after exiting out of Julia and going to
#!csh
cd apps
julia syssim_summary_stats.jl demo_param.in demo_ss.out
julia syssim_dist.jl demo_param.in demo_ss.out
  • Create your own feature branch and start adding features to make SysSim even more realistic and powerful
  • Write papers and cite relevant publications (e.g., Hsu et al. 2018)

NOTE: To run simulations which use the same forward model discussed in Hsu et al. (2018), please go to the "examples/hsu_etal_2018/" sub-directory.
