radiosim

Simulation of radio skies to create astrophysical data sets. This repository is part of the radionets-project.

Installation

This repository is built as a python package. We recommend creating a mamba environment to handle the dependencies of all packages. You can create one by running the following command in this repository:

$ mamba env create -f environment.yml

You can start the environment with

$ mamba activate radiosim

after the installation.

Usage

There are currently three supported simulation types:

1. survey full sky simulation
2. jet extended source
3. mojave MOJAVE like extended source

In the radiosim environment you can start the simulation with

$ radiosim-simulate path/to/rc/file.toml

You can find an exemplary file in rc/default_simulation.toml. The simulations will be saved as .h5 files.
