holodeck.sams (Semi-Analytic Models) module

holodeck - Semi-Analytic Models (SAMs)

The holodeck SAMs construct MBH binary populations using simple semi-analytic and/or semi-empirical relationships. For more information, see the SAMs getting-started guide.

The core element of holodeck SAMs is the Semi_Analytic_Model class. Instances of this class piece together the different components of the model (defined in holodeck.sams.components) to construct a population. The population is evolved with a binary evolution model, implemented as a subclass of the _Hardening, typically in the holodeck.hardening module.
