Paul Disberg enhanced the Muller Mandel kick parameterization in the TeamCOMPAS/COMPAS repository, focusing on improving simulation realism and stability for neutron star and black hole natal kicks. He updated C++ source files and YAML configuration defaults to align with the Disberg+2026 calibration, ensuring simulation outputs reflected the latest scientific models. Paul also revised reStructuredText documentation to keep user-facing references consistent with new defaults, reducing configuration drift and supporting user adoption. His work demonstrated depth in scientific computing, configuration management, and technical writing, delivering well-integrated features without introducing bugs and maintaining strong alignment between code, configuration, and documentation.
