| Moreover, a prior on all observed messengers is required and needs to be tailored to the models used in the inference. Here, we use the GRB afterglow light curve model ''TrPi2018'' from afterglowpy and the kilonova model ''Bu2019lm''. A prior for the joint inference can be found [[https://github.com/nuclear-multimessenger-astronomy/nmma/blob/main/example_files/prior/GW170817_AT2017gfo_GRB170817A.prior|here]], called ''GW170817_AT2017gfo_GRB170817A.prior''. | Moreover, a prior on all observed messengers is required and needs to be tailored to the models used in the inference.

| | **Electroamagnetic data and models** |
| | |
| | In order to not only sample on gravitational-wave data, we provide further electromagnetic signal related flags. The flag ''with-grb=True'' will turn on the sampling on a GRB data. As NMMA currently only includes one GRB model, this model does not need to be further specified. If ''with-grb=False'', a joint inference of GW+KN data is possible, excluding the GRB part. With regard to the kilonova model, we need to provide a specific model under ''kilonova-model'', its respective reduced model grid (if applicable) under ''kilonova-model-svd'' and a ''kilonova-interpolation-type'' which can be either ''sklearn_gp'' or ''tensorflow''. The ''light-curve-data'' flag should include both GRB and kilonova data if a joint inference on GW-GRB-KN is desired (meaning use: ''with-grb=True'') or should just include the kilonova data if a GW-KN inference is targeted (meaning use: ''with-grb=False''). |

| | **Including EOS information** |
| | |
| | NMMA enables to include nuclear information by using equations-of-state (EOS) and sample over the EOS during the inference. In order to include a set of EOSs, each EOS.dat file needs to include information on Mass, Radius and Tidal deformability. For the example shown in the config.ini file below, we see that ''Neos = 5000'' meaning that we include 5000 EOS.dat files each containing information on mass, radius and tidal deformability. We also see that a constraint from NICER measurements has been folded in and thus the ''eos-weight'' reflects this in a weighting. The EOS set should be sorted according to this weighting in order to reduce runtime for the sampling on the EOSs. |
