No project description provided

lbg_tools

Tools for forecasting Lyman-break Galaxies.

Installation

For regular installation, use PyPI: pip install lbg_tools

For dev installation, create a python environment, activate it, then run bash .setup_dev.sh.

Cosmologies

In multiple places you are able to specify a cosmology object for luminosity distance and differential comoving volume calculations. The default cosmology is Astropy's Planck18, but you can use any Astropy cosmology. You can also use a CCL cosmology, but to do so you must install CCL yourself.
