Tibsfox/gsd-skill-creator ↗What it does
Interpret cosmological data and compute large-scale structure parameters
Best for
Astrophysicists needing model-agnostic interpretation of survey data.
Inputs
- · galaxy survey or CMB data with redshift, position, flux
Outputs
- · distance modulus, comoving distance, lookback time, power spectrum, clustering
Requires
- · cosmological calculator
- · spectroscopy analysis library
Preconditions
Knowledge of cosmological parameters; standard format data
Failure modes
- · model-dependent distance measures
- · CMB dipole must be removed
Trust signals
- · Standard Lambda-CDM cosmology
- · accurate comoving distance
