# CosmoGW v 1.0 (coming soon)

CosmoGW is a python library that can be installed using pip from the
project stored in [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/cosmoGW)

pip install cosmoGW

cosmoGW contains functions for the study of cosmological gravitational wave (GW)
backgrounds from different sources in the early Universe, focusing on the
production of GWs from sound waves and MHD turbulence from cosmological phase
transitions.

It corresponds to an extension of the original [*GW_turbulence*](https://github.com/AlbertoRoper/GW_turbulence)
code previously used for calculations of GWs produced by MHD turbulence.

* Author: Alberto Roper Pol (alberto.roperpol@unige.ch)
* Created: 01/12/2021 (GW_turbulence)
* Updated: 13/03/2025 

The project includes state-of-the-art GW models developed by the community, postprocessing calculations,
numerical computations, plotting routines, and detector sensitivities.

If you use any of the cosmoGW results, please cite this [repository](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW) and the
relevant reference/s listed in the routines, corresponding to the original published work.

I would also love to hear about your interest for this project and your work, so consider reaching out to me for
any issues related to the code, questions or discussion: alberto.roperpol@unige.ch.

Some of the routines use results from large-scale numerical simulations conducted with the open-source
[Pencil Code](https://github.com/pencil-code); see

multipurpose and multiuser-maintained,* J. Open Source Softw. **6**, 2807 (2021), 
[arXiv:2009.08231](https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.08231), [DOI:10.21105/joss.02807](https://joss.theoj.org/papers/10.21105/joss.02807).

In particular, if you use any of the results that involve Pencil Code simulations, please cite the

## Routines

The main routines of cosmoGW are stored under src/cosmoGW:

* [**GW_back.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/GW_back.py): functions relevant for cosmological stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds (SGWB).
* [**cosmology.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/cosmology.py): functions relevant for cosmological calculations, including a Friedmann
  solver (see tutorial on Friedmann equations in [cosmology.ipnyb](cosmology/cosmology.ipynb)) that can generate the solution
  files being read in some Pencil Code simulations (see tutorial [cosmology_PC.ipnyb](cosmology/cosmology_PC.ipynb)).
* [**cosmoMF.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/cosmoMF.py): functions relevant for cosmological magnetic fields like bounds from different experiments,
  observations or projected sensitivities, and expectations from theory, among others. Coming soon!
* [**GW_analytical.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/GW_analytical.py): contains analytical calculations and useful mathematical functions
* [**GW_models.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/GW_analytical.py): models to describe the GW background produced from magnetic and velocity field perturbations in the primordial plasma, e.g., induced by a first-order phase transition. It includes models to describe the GW background from MHD turbulence, from sound waves, and from non-linear compressional motion.
* [**GW_templates.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/GW_templates.py): contains templates to describe the GW background from different sources
* [**hydro_bubbles.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/src/cosmoGW/GW_models.py): functions to compute fluid perturbations induced by the expansion of
  bubbles in first-order phase transitions
* [**interferometry.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/src/cosmoGW/interferometry.py): functions to compute the response and sensitivity functions of interferometer
  space-based GW detectors (e.g., LISA and Taiji) to the detection of SGWBs (see tutorial on LISA interferometry in
  [interferometry.ipynb](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/interferometry/interferometry.ipynb)) energy density and polarization, including the space-based network
  LISA-Taiji to detect polarization.
* [**reading.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/src/cosmoGW/reading.py): functions to read the output files of a specific set of runs (project)
  of the Pencil Code.
* [**spectra.py**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/blob/main/src/cosmoGW/spectra.py): contains description for specific spectral templates, postprocessing routines for
  numerical spectra, and other mathematical routines.

## Resources

Some data files are available in cosmoGW that are useful in some of the projects.
They are stored in src/cosmoGW/resources

  and polarization.
* [**detector_sensitivity**](https://github.com/cosmoGW/cosmoGW/resources/detector_sensitivity): includes the sensitivity of various detectors (ground-based, space-based,
  and pulsar timing arrays, among others), see the [README](detector_sensitivity/README.md) file for info and references.
