RealisticSeismology

This project presents an implementation of realistic, finite-temperature nuclear-matter models in neutron-star seismology. It was developed to support Gittins and Andersson (Phys. Rev. D 111, 083024, 2025) and Gittins et al. (Phys. Rev. D 111, 023049, 2025).

Installation

The software is developed using the Julia programming language. To use it:

  1. Install Julia

  2. Download this repository

  3. Run Julia in the repository directory

  4. Type ] to enter Julia's package manager (Pkg.jl) REPL,

julia-repl (@v1.10) pkg>

  1. activate the project environment with

julia-repl (@v1.10) pkg> activate .

  1. instantiate the project,

julia-repl (RealisticSeismology) pkg> instantiate

For more information on Julia packages and environments, see the Pkg.jl documentation.

Getting started

General use of this software is demonstrated in the scripts and notebooks directories. The notebooks are written in Julia Markdown and may be compiled using Weave.jl. For example,

```julia-repl julia> using Weave

julia> weave("mode_demo.jmd") ```
