JuliaAstro/Cosmology.jl

Extending the project

Hello All,
I recently came across this package. I feel it can have more functions used in cosmology, such as a quick power spectrum calculator given the density fields. Do you think we can add new stuff to it? Is there an active effort in doing so?

Hi @haricash! Sorry for the belated reply 😅

I have very little cosmological expertise, but I did some searching about theoretical power spectra (this package, for example) and that seems like a welcome contribution. However, I'm not sure whether it should be done in a new package or not. @giordano any advice?

Yes, probably it makes sense to have it here.

Cool then! I can't start on it right now as I have exams going on. I'll do it right after!

Hi All!

My name is Jaime Ruiz. I am cosmology PhD in the Universiy of Oxford working with David Alonso and Pedro Ferreira.
I also recently joined the Turing.jl org.
I recently developed a clone of CCL in Julia which might do what you are proposing, LimberJack:
https://github.com/JaimeRZP/LimberJack.jl

It has a few limitations but we are hoping to publish it soon!
Hope this is useful!
