Create arbitrary boxes with isotropic power spectra

Project description

https://coveralls.io/repos/github/steven-murray/powerbox/badge.svg?branch=master https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/powerbox.svg https://travis-ci.org/steven-murray/powerbox.svg?branch=master https://api.codacy.com/project/badge/Grade/5853411c78444a5a9c6ec4058c6dbda9

Make arbitrarily structured, arbitrary-dimension boxes and log-normal mocks.

powerbox is a pure-python code for creating density grids (or boxes) that have an arbitrary two-point distribution (i.e. power spectrum). Primary motivations for creating the code were the simple creation of log-normal mock galaxy distributions, but the methodology can be used for other applications.

Features

  • Works in any number of dimensions.

  • Really simple.

  • Arbitrary isotropic power-spectra.

  • Create Gaussian or Log-Normal fields

  • Create discrete samples following the field, assuming it describes an over-density.

  • Measure power spectra of output fields to ensure consistency.

  • Seamlessly uses pyFFTW if available for ~double the speed.

Installation

Clone/Download then python setup.py install. Or just pip install powerbox.
