 +NMMA will be under continuous development meaning that new astrophysical models such as for kilonovae, supernovae, gamma-ray bursts and so on will be implemented over time. Therefore, it is worthwhile to check out the ''model_parameters_dict'' in [[https://github.com/nuclear-multimessenger-astronomy/nmma/blob/538326458e1e6101389e9861ff6bf19bc93fa070/nmma/em/model.py#L17|models.py]]  from time to time.

 === Supernovae  === === Supernovae  ===
 We rely on a few different models for supernovae from [[https://github.com/sncosmo/sncosmo|sncosmo]]. For example, the nugent-hyper model [[https://arxiv.org/pdf/astro-ph/0403450|(Levan et al. 2005)]] used for SN Ib/c supernovae with the stretch and scale set to match the intrinsic (dereddened, rest frame) -band luminosity of SN 1998bw at maximum light. The main free parameter is the absolute magnitude. We rely on a few different models for supernovae from [[https://github.com/sncosmo/sncosmo|sncosmo]].

 +Some models are analytic / semi-analytic that can be sampled, others rely on sampling from a grid of modeled light curves through the use of Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and an interpolation scheme (either Gaussian process modeling or neural networks).
