We present a numerical code to simulate maps of Galactic emission in intensity and polarization at microwave frequencies, aiding in the design of Cosmic Microwave Background experiments. This Python code builds on existing efforts to…
We present a new software pipeline -- PyMorph -- for automated estimation of structural parameters of galaxies. Both parametric fits through a two dimensional bulge disk decomposition as well as structural parameter measurements like…
The absorption and emission of light by exoplanet atmospheres encode details of atmospheric composition, temperature, and dynamics. Fundamentally, simulating these processes requires detailed knowledge of the opacity of gases within an…
A cosmology calculator that computes times and distances as a function of redshift for user-defined cosmological parameters is available on the World Wide Web. This note gives the formulae used by the cosmology calculator and discusses some…
This Python module provides an interface for querying the Australia Telescope National Facility (ATNF) pulsar catalogue (Manchester et al. 2005). The intended users are astronomers wanting to extract data from the catalogue through a script…
Current and upcoming cosmological experiments open a new era of precision cosmology, thus demanding accurate theoretical predictions for cosmological observables. Because of the complexity of the codes delivering such predictions, reaching…
Three-dimensional topology optimization (TO) is a powerful technique in engineering design, but readily usable, open-source implementations remain limited within the popular Python scientific environment. This paper introduces PyTopo3D, a…
In this paper, we introduce Pysimfrac, a open-source python library for generating 3-D synthetic fracture realizations, integrating with fluid simulators, and performing analysis. Pysimfrac allows the user to specify one of three fracture…
This paper describes HyperStream, a large-scale, flexible and robust software package, written in the Python language, for processing streaming data with workflow creation capabilities. HyperStream overcomes the limitations of other…
Deep learning is a promising tool to determine the physical model that describes our universe. To handle the considerable computational cost of this problem, we present CosmoFlow: a highly scalable deep learning application built on top of…
Python has become the de facto language for scientific computing. Programming in Python is highly productive, mainly due to its rich science-oriented software ecosystem built around the NumPy module. As a result, the demand for Python…
Astronomical images often show sharp features that are caused by cosmic ray (CR) hits, hot pixels, or non-Gaussian noise. L.A.Cosmic (van Dokkum 2001) is a widely used edge detection algorithm that identifies and replaces such features.…
There are numerous approaches to building analysis applications across the high-energy physics community. Among them are Python-based, or at least Python-driven, analysis workflows. We aim to ease the adoption of a Python-based analysis…
NIFTy, "Numerical Information Field Theory", is a software framework designed to ease the development and implementation of field inference algorithms. Field equations are formulated independently of the underlying spatial geometry allowing…
Cosmological simulations require the use of a multiple time-stepping scheme. Without such a scheme, cosmological simulations would be impossible due to their high level of dynamic range; over eleven orders of magnitude in density. Such a…
TauREx 3 is the next generation of the TauREx exoplanet atmospheric retrieval framework for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It is a complete rewrite with a full Python stack that makes it easy-to-use, high-performance, dynamic, and flexible. The…
With the growing incidents of flash crowds and sophisticated DDoS attacks mimicking benign traffic, it becomes challenging to protect Internet-based services solely by differentiating attack traffic from legitimate traffic. While…
Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of the Navier Stokes equations is a valuable research tool in fluid dynamics, but there are very few publicly available codes and, due to heavy number crunching, codes are usually written in low-level…
