"PySM generates full-sky simulations of Galactic emissions in intensity and polarization"

PySM 3

PySM generates full-sky simulations of Galactic emissions in intensity and polarization relevant to CMB experiments. It is a large refactor of PySM 2 focused on reducing memory usage, improving performance and run in parallel with MPI.

Install

See the documentation

• Install with pip install . or with pip install .[test] to also install the requirements for running tests

• Optionally, if you have an MPI environment available and you would like to test the MPI capabilities of PySM, install mpi4py and libsharp, check the documentation link above for more details.

• Check code style with tox -e codestyle

• Test with pytest or tox -e test

• Building docs requires pandoc, not the python package, the actual pandoc command line tool, install it with conda or your package manager

• Build docs locally with tox -e build_docs
