class nbodykit.cosmology.power.transfers.CLASS(cosmo, redshift)[source]

The linear matter transfer function using the CLASS Boltzmann code.

Parameters: cosmo (Cosmology) – the cosmology instance redshift (float) – the redshift of the power spectrum

Methods

 __call__(k) Return the CLASS linear transfer function at redshift.
__call__(k)[source]

Return the CLASS linear transfer function at redshift. This computes the transfer function from the CLASS linear power spectrum using:

$T(k) = \left [ P_L(k) / k^n_s \right]^{1/2}.$

We normalize the transfer function $$T(k)$$ to unity as $$k \rightarrow 0$$ at $$z=0$$.

Parameters: k (float, array_like) – the wavenumbers in units of $$h \mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$$ Tk – the transfer function evaluated at k, normalized to unity on large scales float, array_like
class nbodykit.cosmology.power.transfers.EisensteinHu(cosmo, redshift)[source]

The linear matter transfer function using the Eisenstein & Hu (1998) fitting formula with BAO wiggles.

Parameters: cosmo (Cosmology) – the cosmology instance redshift (float) – the redshift of the power spectrum

Methods

 __call__(k) Return the Eisenstein-Hu transfer function with BAO wiggles.
__call__(k)[source]

Return the Eisenstein-Hu transfer function with BAO wiggles.

This is normalized to unity as $$k \rightarrow 0$$ at $$z=0$$. The redshift scaling is provided by the Cosmology.scale_independent_growth_factor() function.

Parameters: k (float, array_like) – the wavenumbers in units of $$h \mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$$ Tk – the transfer function evaluated at k, normalized to unity on large scales float, array_like
