Detailed Description of the Data Product¶

This product contains the tomographic cosmic shear E/B power spectra.

This output product is a fits file (see le3.wl.2pcf.output.pebshearshear2d in the following FITS descriptors).

Extra (optional) metadata associated to the FITS container are the following:

SpatialCoverage a description of the spatial footprint [optional, cot:spatialFootprint],
CatalogSelection: describing the selection in the input catalogues [optional, up to 2 elements]
- CatalogFileName: the name of the input catalogue [sys:dataFileName]
- CatalogSHE: type of input catalogue [string among “BFD”, “KSB”, “LensMC”,”MomentsML”,”REGAUSS”,”MER_PHZ”, “OTHER” ]
- Selection: selection associated to catalogue [string]
- CatalogUse: for which use case the catalog is employed (=[“ShearShear”]) [string among “PosPos”, “PosShear”, “ShearShear”]
- CatalogInfo: whether position or shear information is used in this catalogue [string among “Pos”, “Shear”] (=[“Shear”])
- CatalogOrder: order associated to catalogue for reporting (e.g. BIN_ID1)[int32]

The fits file contains:

a primary array containing important computation parameters as keywords,
binary tables in the next HDUs with cosmic shear E/B power spectra for specific redshift bins.

Primary Array¶

This fits table is expected to contain the following keywords in primary HDU, characterizing the important parameters of the product:

SIMPLE	/
BITPIX	/
NAXIS	/
EXTEND	/
THMIN	/	Min of angular range
THMAX	/	Max of angular range
OATH	/	Open Angle threshold
THUNIT	/	Unit of theta
BINSCALE	/	lin or log bins
COORDSYS	/	cartesian or spherical
SHE_SOFT	/	Where the input catalogue is coming from (if SHE catalogue used)
SHE_SEL	/	ID of selection made (e.g. tomographic redshifts, stellar mass)
SOFTNAME	/
SOFTVERS	/
END

THMIN: minimal angular value chosen for spatial binning [DoubleKeyword]
THMAX: maximal angular value chosen for spatial binning [DoubleKeyword]
OATH: maximal open angle value used for the approximation [DoubleKeyword]
THUNIT: unit of spatial distance [StringKeyword]
BINSCALE: if linear or logarithmic scales are used for output [StringKeyword]
COORDSYS: if spherical or cartesian computation of distances [StringKeyword]
SHE_SOFT: which SHE catalogue used [StringKeyword]
SHE_SEL: selection for shear catalogue [StringKeyword]
SOFTNAME: name of software used for PEB [StringKeyword]
SOFTVERS: version of software used for PEB [StringKeyword]

Table (HDU=1…)¶

The following keywords are added to the header of the HDUs:

6 columns table
Columns	ELL		FITS D
	PE		FITS D
	PB		FITS D
	PEB		FITS D
	ELL_LOWER		FITS D
	ELL_UPPER		FITS D

BIN_ID1: bin for first catalog [IntegerKeyword]
BIN_ID2: bin for second catalog [IntegerKeyword]
EXTNAME: “SHEARSHEAR2D_PEB”

and the columns are:

ELL: central multipole in the band [D, float64]
PE: E mode band power spectrum [D, float64]
PB: B mode band power spectrum [D, float64]
PEB: E/B cross band power spectrum [D, float64]
ELL_LOWER: minimal multipole in the band [D, float64]
ELL_UPPER: maximal multipole in the band [D, float64]

Note

Under discussion is the possibility in the future of having as first HDU a summary table with information on the binning for spectra tables (HDU>2):

ELL: mean multipole in the band [D, float64]
ELLMIN: minimal multipole in the band [D, float64]
ELLMAX: maximal multipole in the band [D, float64]

and in the second hdu a summary table to allow fast access to the HDU corresponding to a particular bin combination:

BIN_ID1: bin for first catalog [J, int32]
BIN_ID2: bin for second catalog [J, int32]
HDU: HDU index [J, int32]
