I see-- that is helpful to know! Here is the snippet of code which reads in the NG par and tim files and then generates the synthetic TOAs. Since the...

@jellis18 Yes! I appears to fail randomly. If I want to simulate realistic TOAs, can you suggest what white noise parameters would be appropriate? I took 100ns by looking at...

@jellis18 @vallis I think I see. So, for J1713, the par file gives the white noise parameters for each backend: ``` efac_L-wide_ASP noisepar(val=1.039, flag='f', flagval='L-wide_ASP') efac_L-wide_PUPPI noisepar(val=0.983, flag='f', flagval='L-wide_PUPPI') efac_Rcvr1_2_GASP...

After working on this a bit more, I decided to see if I could just save the par files of unmodified pulsars and found that the code still (randomly) crashes:...

I realized that I needed to use the tempo2 par files (in 'narrowband/alternate/tempo2/')-- once I did, this error went away.

Hi Thejs, The solution mentioned in point 1 worked for me— thanks! Now I am running into a second issue: I am computing the damping scale as the new derived...

Unfortunately the problem with the error is still there with MP 3.4.0 and python 3.8.5

Yes, just when computing the histograms and plotting. I was able to get it to work by downgrading to matplotlib V 3.2.1; the Conda 3.8.5 distribution included matplotlib V 3.3.2.

With help from Vivian Poulin I have figured out where this happens in the code: it is in the 'perturb_print_variables' and starts with the comment: "/* converting synchronous variables to...
