NKKCorrelation: Count-scalar-scalar correlations

class treecorr.NKKCorrelation(config=None, *, logger=None, **kwargs)

Bases: Corr3

This class handles the calculation and storage of a 3-point count-scalar-scalar correlation function, where as usual K represents any spin-0 scalar field.

With this class, point 1 of the triangle (i.e. the vertex opposite d1) is the one with the scalar value. Use KNKCorrelation and KKNCorrelation for classes with the scalar in the other two positions.

See the doc string of Corr3 for a description of how the triangles are binned along with the attributes related to the different binning options.

In addition to the attributes common to all Corr3 subclasses, objects of this class hold the following attributes:

Attributes:

• zeta – The correlation function, \(\zeta\).

• varzeta – The variance estimate, only including the shot noise propagated into the final correlation.

The typical usage pattern is as follows:

>>> nkk = treecorr.NKKCorrelation(config)
>>> nkk.process(cat1, cat2)        # Compute cross-correlation of two fields.
>>> nkk.process(cat1, cat2, cat3)  # Compute cross-correlation of three fields.
>>> nkk.write(file_name)           # Write out to a file.
>>> rkk.process(rand, cat2)        # Compute cross-correlation with randoms.
>>> nkk.calculateZeta(rkk=rkk)     # Calculate zeta using randoms
>>> zeta = nkk.zeta                # Access correlation function
>>> zetar = nkk.zetar              # Or access real and imaginary parts separately
>>> zetai = nkk.zetai

Parameters:

• config (dict) – A configuration dict that can be used to pass in kwargs if desired. This dict is allowed to have addition entries besides those listed in Corr3, which are ignored here. (default: None)

• logger – If desired, a logger object for logging. (default: None, in which case one will be built according to the config dict’s verbose level.)

Keyword Arguments:

**kwargs – See the documentation for Corr3 for the list of allowed keyword arguments, which may be passed either directly or in the config dict.

__init__(config=None, *, logger=None, **kwargs)

calculateZeta(*, rkk=None)

Calculate the correlation function possibly given another correlation function that uses random points for the foreground objects.

• If rkk is None, the simple correlation function (self.zeta) is returned.

• If rkk is not None, then a compensated calculation is done: \(\zeta = (DKK - RKK)\), where DKK represents the correlation of the kappa field with the data points and RKK represents the correlation with random points.

After calling this function, the attributes zeta, varzeta and cov will correspond to the compensated values (if rkk is provided). The raw, uncompensated values are available as rawxi and raw_varxi.

Parameters:

rkk (NKKCorrelation) – The cross-correlation using random locations as the lenses (RKK), if desired. (default: None)

Returns:

Tuple containing

• zeta = array of \(\zeta\)

• varzeta = array of variance estimates of \(\zeta\)
