Detailed Description of the Data Product

This product contains the covariance matrix for tomographic angular power spectra.

This output product is a fits binary table containing important input parameters as keywords in primary HDU, and a binary table in the next HD with the covariance for tomographic angular power spectra as described in

  • SpatialCoverage a description of the spatial footprint [optional, cot:spatialFootprint],

  • CatalogSelection: describing the selection in the input catalogues [optional, up to 4 elements]

    • CatalogFileName: the name of the input catalogue [sys:dataFileName]

    • Selection: selection associated to catalogue [string]

    • CatalogUse: for which use case the catalog is employed (=[“PosPos”]) [string among “PosPos”, “PosShear”, “ShearShear”]

    • CatalogInfo: whether position or shear information is used in this catalogue (=[“Pos”]) [string among “Pos”, “Shear”]

    • CatalogOrder: order associated to catalogue for reporting (e.g. BIN_ID1)[int32]

Note

Under discussion is the possibility in the future of having as first HDU an estimate for Shot Noise :

  1. ELL1: first mean multipole [D, float64]

  2. ELL2: second mean multipole [D, float64]

  3. BIN_COMB1: first index for combination of redshift bins [J, int32]

  4. BIN_COMB2: second index for combination of redshift bins [J, int32]

  5. CL_SH: covariance of angular band power spectrum (shot noise) [D, float64]
