A package for modelling the Universe.

Project description

Read the Docs GitHub Codecov Compatibility

This package contains methods for modelling the Universe, galaxies and the Milky Way. SkyPy simulates populations of astronomical objects, generating random realisations of intrinsic and observed properties, with the intention the simulations can then be compared to data as part of an inference pipeline.

Currently, SkyPy implements the following modules:

  • Galaxies: morphology, luminosity and redshift distributions

  • Pipelines to generate populations of astronomical objects

The full list of features can be found in the SkyPy Documentation.

For more information on the people involved and how SkyPy is developed, please visit the SkyPy Collaboration website: http://skypyproject.org
