jlvdb/yet_another_wizz repository overview

yet_another_wizz is a python package to efficiently compute cross-correlation redshifts, also know as clustering redshifts and is hosted on github:

• code: https://github.com/jlvdb/yet_another_wizz.git⁠
• docs: https://yet-another-wizz.readthedocs.io/⁠
• PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/yet_another_wizz/⁠

The method allows to estimate the unknown redshift distribution of a galaxy sample by correlating the on-sky positions with a reference sample with known redshifts. This implementation is based on the single bin correlation measurement of the correlation amplitude, introduced by Schmidt et al. (2013, arXiv:1303.0292⁠).

Note When using this code in published work, please cite van den Busch et al. (2020), A&A 642, A200 (arXiv:2007.01846⁠)
