Unit conventions¶
DeltaSigma Forecast uses Mpc/h for user-facing radial quantities,
including forecast inputs such as r and rp_bin_edges and saved
forecast outputs.
Internally, different parts of the pipeline follow different conventions:
The covariance module uses
Mpc/h.The data-vector module follows the CCL convention and uses
Mpc.The forecast builder converts input radii from
Mpc/htoMpcbefore calling the CCL-backed data-vector calculation.
DeltaSigma units¶
The forecast data vector currently reports \(\Delta\Sigma\) in
Msun / pc^2. The associated projected-radius coordinate is reported in
Mpc/h.
The covariance calculation uses a Sigma_crit prefactor intended for
distances supplied in Mpc/h and DeltaSigma-like quantities expressed in
Msun h / pc^2.
Unless otherwise stated, radial bins, projected radii, and forecast radius
grids should be interpreted in Mpc/h.
