# RealisticSeismology
This project presents an implementation of realistic, finite-temperature nuclear-matter models in neutron-star seismology. It was developed to support [arXiv:2406.05177](https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.05177) and [Gittins _et al._ (Phys. Rev. D **111**, 023049, 2025)](https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.111.023049).
## Installation
The software is developed using the Julia programming language. To use it:
1. Install [Julia](https://julialang.org/downloads/)
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>
```
5. `activate` the project environment with
```julia-repl
(@v1.10) pkg> activate .
```
6. `instantiate` the project,
```julia-repl
(RealisticSeismology) pkg> instantiate
```
For more information on Julia packages and environments, see the [Pkg.jl documentation](https://pkgdocs.julialang.org/v1/).
## 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](https://weavejl.mpastell.com/stable/). For example,
```julia-repl
julia> using Weave
julia> weave("mode_demo.jmd")
```
