cosmoglobe

---

cosmoglobe is a python package that interfaces the Cosmoglobe Sky Model with Commander outputs for the purpose of producing astrophysical sky maps.

Features

See the documentation for a more comprehensive guide.

Initialize the Cosmoglobe Sky Model (this downloads and caches a ~800 MB file with the sky model data)

import cosmoglobe

model = cosmoglobe.sky_model(nside=256)

Simulate the sky at 150 GHz in units of MJy/sr, smoothed to 40 arcmin with a gaussian beam:

import astropy.units as u

emission = model(150*u.GHz, fwhm=40*u.arcmin, output_unit="MJy/sr")

Integrate over a bandpass:

import numpy as np
import healpy as hp
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Reading in WMAP K-band bandpass profile.
bandpass_frequencies, bandpass_weights = np.loadtxt(wmap_bandpass.txt, unpack=True)

# The units of the detector must be specified even if the bandpass is pre-normalized.
bandpass_weights *= u.Unit("K_RJ") # Specify K_RJ or K_CMB
bandpass_frequencies *= u.GHz

model.remove_dipole() # Remove the dipole from the CMB component
emission = model(
    freqs=bandpass_frequencies, 
    weights=bandpass_weights, 
    fwhm=0.8*u.deg, 
    output_unit="mK_RJ",
)

hp.mollview(emission[0], hist="norm") # Plotting the intensity
plt.show()

Installation

cosmoglobe can be installed via pip

pip install cosmoglobe
