A package to calculate the log probability of foregrounds.

hoover

Package to calculate the log probability of foregrounds.

Description

Given a dataset $\mathbf{d}$, this package calculates, and samples from, the maximum likelihood set of foreground parameters, $P(\mathbf{\theta}}\mathbf{d})$.

This approach has been used in these papers:

1. Simulated forecasts for primordial B-mode searches in ground-based experiments
2. The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts
3. Removal of Galactic foregrounds for the Simons Observatory primordial gravitational wave search

Useage

An example note book is in the notebooks folder.

To add SEDs, edit the SED functions file. The likelihood is defined in the likelihood file.

Note

This project has been set up using PyScaffold 3.2.2. For details and usage information on PyScaffold see https://pyscaffold.org/.
