    4. Database of black hole populations in different stellar environments.

    This database is devoted to astrophysical research on stelar-mass black holes. For the original research paper see Wiktorowicz et al. (2019). All the model-related detailes can be found in the paper. The database provides technical details necessary for the application of its resultrs in various researches.

    Main models (analysed in Wiktorowicz et al.) are named in the following scheme: MODELNAME_DATATYPE.dat

    where MODELNAME relates the datafile to the models described in the paper in the following way

    std - standard model
    NKbe - Bray & Eldridge natal kicks model
    NKr - Rodriguez et al. natal kicks model
    SS0 - initial distributions model SS0
    flatIMF/steepIMF - flat/steep IMF models
    lowZ - model with metallicity Z=0.0002
    midZ - model with metallicity Z=0.002
    For the large grid of models named files are named in the following way: DESIGNATION_DATATYPE.dat

    where DESIGNATION may containe one or more of the model names defined above. In these cases the model is a combination of main models described in the paper.
    For example SS0_flatIMF_lowZ_binary.dat is a model similar to std but with initial parameters defined as in SS0, flat IMF, and metallicity equal Z=0.0002

    DATATYPE may be

    single - information of sigle stars originating from disrupted binaries
    binary - data on BH with companions stars (including double BH)
    merger - stellar mergers

    For example std_single.dat contains information for single black holes in standard model

    Below the content of each DATATYPE files are described:

    The list of phases used to describe evolutionary history (evroute):

    MTx - stands for non-conservative mass transfer through Roche lobe overflow. "x" indicates the donor: 1-primary, 2-secondary.
    SNx - stands for a supernovae explosion.
    CEx(a0-b0:a1-b1) - stands for a common envelope events.
    "x" indicates the donor star: 1-primary, 2-secondary or 12-both components are donors.
    "a0-b0" are integer numbers indicating stellar types (explained below) of the primary-secondary components, respectively, at the start of the CE.
    Analogously "a1-b1" indicate stellar types at the outcome of the CE.
    For example "CE2(14-2:14-7)" means that a CE was initiated by the secondary component ("CE2"), which was a Hertzsprung gap star ("-2:"), onto the primary, which was a black hole ("14-").
    In the outcome, the secondary ejected its hydrogen envelope and became a Wolf-Rayet star ("-7"), while the primary remained a black hole (":14-").
    AICtypex indicates an accretion induced core collapse.
    "type" describes the compact object to which the progenitor has collapsed and "x" - the relevant component: 1-primary, 2-secondary.
    For example "AICNS1" means that the accreting primary star ("1") has collapsed into a neutron star ("NS").

    List of stellar types:

    0 - main sequence star with M<=0.7 Msun (deeply or fully convective)
    1 - main sequence star with M>0.7 Msun
    2 - Hertzsprung gap star
    3 - first giant branch star
    4 - core helium burning star
    5 - early asymptotic giant branch star
    6 - thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch star
    7 - main sequence naked helium star (Wolf-Rayet star)
    8 - Hertzsprung gap naked helium star
    9 - giant branch naked helium star
    10 - helium white dwarf
    11 - carbon/oxygen white dwarf
    12 - oxygen/neon white dwarf
    13 - neutron star
    14 - black hole
    17 - hybrid white dwarf
