massfunc 0.1.0

A Python package for cosmological mass function calculations

MassFunc

A Python package for cosmological mass function calculations, including Press-Schechter, Sheth-Tormen mass functions, star formation rate density calculations, and more.

Features

• Cosmological calculations: Support for various cosmological parameters and models
• Mass function calculations: Implements Press-Schechter and Sheth-Tormen mass functions
• Star formation rate density: Calculate SFRD with customizable parameters
• Collapse fraction: Tools for calculating collapse fractions
• Efficient interpolation: Built-in interpolation for fast calculations

Installation

From PyPI (recommended)

pip install massfunc

From source

git clone https://github.com/SOYONAOC/MassFunction.git
cd massfunc
pip install -e .

Quick Start

import massfunc

# Create a mass function calculator with default cosmology
mf = massfunc.Mass_func(ns=0.965, sigma8=0.811, h=0.674, omegam=0.315)

# Setup interpolation for faster calculations
mf.sigma2_interpolation_set()
mf.dsig2dm_interpolation_set()

# Calculate mass function at z=0 for a range of masses
import numpy as np
masses = np.logspace(10, 15, 100)  # 10^10 to 10^15 solar masses
z = 0.0

# Press-Schechter mass function
dndm_ps = mf.dndmps(masses, z)

# Sheth-Tormen mass function
dndm_st = mf.dndmst(masses, z)

# Star formation rate density
sfrd = massfunc.SFRD(ns=0.965, sigma8=0.811)
rho_sfr = sfrd.rhosfr(1e4, 1e8, z)
