Changelog

0.9

• RayTracer can now perform line of sight integrations to approximate kappa (Born, lens-lens and geodesic perturbation) and omega (lens-lens), without full raytracing

• cutPlanes can now handle snapshots in FastPM format

• If snapshots are provided in light cone projections, LensTools can do plane cutting, raytracing and LOS integrations in a single script

• Fit multiple observations with the same FisherAnalysis

0.7-dev

• ShearCatalog allows to re-bin galaxies according to redshift

• Introduced a SquareMaxtrix class (inherits from Ensemble) for square matrix operations, with column name support

• Protect nodes in a SimulationBatch to call forbidden methods

0.6

• Database class for local/remote SQL databases

• Gadget2SnapshotPipe class allows to combine Gadget2 and lenstools.planes via named pipes

• Improvements in pipeline deployment

0.5

• Weak lensing pipeline functionalities

• Measure 2pcf of convergence maps with hankel transforms

• Moved Limber module under lenstools.simulations

• Dedicated module for Fast Fourier Transforms

• Ensemble is now a sub-class of pandas.DataFrame

0.4.8.4

• New operations in Ensemble: bootstrap, readall, shuffle

• Ensemble mean is automatically recomputed when re–assigning data

0.4.8
