This repo is a fork of https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/fferlito/dorian The goal of this repo is simplify the usage and make it usuable on raw lightcone arrays rather than read file from disk
Deflection Of Rays In Astrophysical Numerical simulations
Dorian is a Python package to compute full-sky ray-traced weak gravitational lensing maps starting from cosmological simulations.
For technical details, see the related paper.
Installation
The package can be installed with:
pip install -e .
You will need the following dependencies:
Usage
This fork simplifies the workflow significantly. You can now pass density maps (as numpy arrays) directly to the raytracer without needing to format files on disk.
import numpy as np
from dorian.lensing import raytrace_from_density
# 1. Prepare your data
# density_maps: shape (n_shells, npix)
# redshifts: shape (n_shells,)
# ...
# 2. Run raytracing
results = raytrace_from_density(
density_maps=density_maps,
redshifts=redshifts,
z_source=1.0,
box_size=2000.0,
n_particles=1024**3,
omega_m=0.3,
h=0.7,
omega_l=0.7,
nside=512,
interp='bilinear'
)
kappa_map = results['convergence_raytraced']
For a complete working example, check examples/raytracing_demo.ipynb.
Examples
- examples/raytracing_demo.ipynb: The recommended starting point. Demonstrates loading a sample lightcone and running the raytracer.
Authors
This package has been developed by Fulvio Ferlito, with contributions from: Christopher Davies, Alessandro Greco, Martin Reinecke and Volker Springel.
