Detailed Description of the Data Product¶

This product contains the tomographic galaxy - galaxy lensing 2PCF.

This output product is a fits file (see le3.wl.2pcf.output.shearpos2d 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 (=[“PosShear”]) [string among “PosPos”, “PosShear”, “ShearShear”]
- CatalogInfo: whether position or shear information is used in this catalogue [string among “Pos”, “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 galaxy-galaxy lensing 2-PCF 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

BIN_ID1: bin for first catalog [IntegerKeyword]
BIN_ID2: bin for second catalog [IntegerKeyword]
EXTNAME: “POSSHEAR2D_2PCF”

and the columns are:

THETA: mean angular separation in the bin [D, float64]
GAMMA_T: 2PCF for tangential component of shear [D, float64]
GAMMA_X: 2PCF for cross component of shear [D, float64]
WEIGHT: total weight for the bin [D, float64]
SQRT_D: Poisson error associated to the bin [D, float64]
SQRT_DCOR: Poisson error associated to the bin, down-weighted by the ratio of number of galaxy pairs by the number of nodes [D, float64]
NPAIR: Number of pairs [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 2PCF tables (HDU>2):

THETA: angular separation (center of spatial bin) [D, float64]
MIN_THETA: minimal angular separation in the bin [D, float64]
MAX_THETA: maximal angular separation in the bin [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]
