SI Toolbox - Full documentation

Abstract

SI Toolbox is a package for estimating the isotropy violation in the CMB sky. It can be used for estimating the BipoSH coefficients, Dipole modulation and Doppler boost parameters etc. Different Fortran subroutines, provided with this package, can help the users to develop their independent Fortran codes. This document is an overview of the SI Toolbox installation guide, standalone facilities and Fortran subroutines. Contribution.The Package SIToolBox is coded up by Santanu Das. However, the work is based on multiple research papers [1][2][3][4]. Here, I have listed everyone, who were directly or indirectly involved in developing the package SIToolBox.

Joint Bayesian analysis of large angular scale CMB temperature anomalies

“…While this work was in progress, one of the coauthors (Santanu Das) has posted two arXiv preprints[31,32] (PDF file of one of those was withdrawn later[31]) which are related to the HMC analysis for statistically anisotropic signal in the presence of partial sky and non-isotropic noise. However, the analysis done in this paper did not use the code made public in[32]. The method and the code used in this analysis are developed independently from the initial code of[30] for full sky and isotropic noise.…”
