final class NumCosmo.GalaxyRedshiftBinning : GObject.Object

Binning calculator: the true-redshift distribution of a photometric bin.

A calculator (a plain GObject, NOT an NcmModel and NOT held in an NcmMSet) that produces the true-redshift distribution $\mathrm{d}n/\mathrm{d}z$ of the galaxies selected into a photometric window $[z_{p,\min}, z_{p,\max}]$, from a population model $P(z\mid I)$ (a NcGalaxyRedshiftPop) and a population photo-z observable $P(z_p\mid z)$ (a NcGalaxyRedshiftObsSel): $$ \frac{\mathrm{d}n}{\mathrm{d}z}(z) \propto P(z\mid I)\, \frac{W(z; z_{p,\min}, z_{p,\max})}{N(z)}, \qquad N(z) = \int_0^\infty P(z_p\mid z)\,\mathrm{d}z_p, $$ where $W$ is the observable’s selection mass in the window and $N$ the physical (photo-z $\ge 0$) normalization. Both come from the observable’s generic nc_galaxy_redshift_obs_sel_window_mass(), so the calculator is scheme-free (no per-kernel subclass).

The photometric window is NOT object state: a single calculator produces $\mathrm{d}n/\mathrm{d}z$ for arbitrarily many bins. The window is an argument to nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_dndz() (and the on-nodes variant), which are pure producers: they return a freshly-built, normalized NcmSpline on each call and cache nothing, so they do NOT require nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare().

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare() builds only the window-free marginal photo-z density $P(z_p)$ used by nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_eval_pzp() and the equal-area edges nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_equal_area_photoz_bins(); those two read the cached marginal and take no models. Re-call prepare after changing the model parameters.

Following the NcDistance convention, the calculator does NOT hold the models: they are consumed only inside the methods that need them and are passed as arguments. The cached marginal is built with an adaptive-knot scheme that guarantees a relative interpolation-error tolerance (NcGalaxyRedshiftBinning:reltol). Photo-z systematics (shift/stretch) are intentionally NOT here: they belong to a future n(z) model layered on top of this producer.

Ancestors

Constructors

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_new

Creates a new NcGalaxyRedshiftBinning. The photometric window is not held by the calculator: it is supplied to each dn/dz method. The population and observable models are likewise not held; they are passed to every method that needs them.

Functions

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_clear

Decreases the reference count of gsdrb by one, and sets the pointer *gsdrb to NULL.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_lsst_srd_edges

Computes the LSST SRD tomographic photo-z bin edges for type and hands back the matching population + Gaussian observable models (both configured for type) via the out-parameters. The edges follow the LSST DESC SRD recipe:.

Instance methods

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_dndz

Builds the normalized bin $\mathrm{d}n/\mathrm{d}z$ for the photometric window [zp_min, zp_max] as a fresh adaptive-knot NcmSpline meeting NcGalaxyRedshiftBinning:reltol over its effective support, normalized to unit integral. Pure producer: consumes the models on the call, holds nothing, and does NOT require nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare().

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_dndz_on_nodes

As nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_dndz(), but returns the normalized bin $\mathrm{d}n/\mathrm{d}z$ tabulated on the given z_nodes (0 outside the effective support). Same pure-producer semantics: holds nothing and does NOT require nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare().

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_equal_area_photoz_bins

Computes n_bins + 1 photometric-redshift edges that split the marginal $P(z_p)$ (see nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_eval_pzp()) into n_bins slices of equal integrated probability, by inverting its CDF. Suitable for equal-area source binning. Requires a prior nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare(); zp_max must not exceed NcGalaxyRedshiftBinning:zp-support-max.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_eval_pzp

Evaluates the marginal photometric-redshift density $$ P(z_p) = \int P(z\mid I)\,\frac{f(z_p\mid z)}{N(z)}\,\mathrm{d}z, \qquad N(z) = \int_0^\infty f(z_p’\mid z)\,\mathrm{d}z_p’, $$ the distribution of photo-z over the whole population (independent of any bin window). Requires a prior nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare().

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_free

Decreases the reference count of gsdrb by one.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_get_reltol
No description available.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_prepare

Builds the window-free marginal photo-z density $P(z_p)$ over $[0, \mathtt{zp_support_max}]$ used by nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_eval_pzp() and nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_compute_equal_area_photoz_bins(). The models are consumed here and NOT retained; re-call this after changing their parameters.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_ref

Increases the reference count of gsdrb by one.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_set_reltol

Sets the relative interpolation tolerance and invalidates the cached marginal $P(z_p)$.

nc_galaxy_redshift_binning_set_zp_support_max

Sets the maximum photometric redshift over which the marginal $P(z_p)$ is tabulated and invalidates the cached marginal distribution. Does not affect the bin $\mathrm{d}n/\mathrm{d}z$, which is independent of the P(zp) support.
