convert_oldhpx2cmbfast
This IDL facility provides a means to
change the normalization of polarization power spectra in a FITS file
from Healpix 1.1 convention to Healpix 1.2 (which is the same as CMBFAST).
Location in HEALPix directory tree:
src/idl/fits/convert_oldhpx2cmbfast.pro
FORMAT IDL>
CONVERT_OLDHPX2CMBFAST, file_in, [file_out, NO_RENORM= ]
QUALIFIERS
-
file_in
- String containing the name of the FITS file with the power
spectra to be read.
-
file_out
- (OPTIONAL) String containing the name of the file to be
written after renormalization. If absent, file_in will be used for output
KEYWORDS
-
NO_RENORM =
- if set, the renormalization is not done.
but the keyword POLNORM = CMBFAST is added to the FITS header
(useful if the FITS file is already in CMBFAST format).
DESCRIPTION
convert_oldhpx2cmbfast does the conversion from the polarization normalisation
used in HEALPix 1.1 to the one used in HEALPix 1.2
(see the
RELATED ROUTINESThis section lists the routines related to convert_oldhpx2cmbfast
-
idl
- version 6.1 or more is necessary to run convert_oldhpx2cmbfast.
-
cl2fits
- provides the a routine to write a
power spectrum to a FITS file.
-
fits2cl
- provides the complimentary routine to read in a
power spectrum from a FITS file.
-
synfast
- utilises the output file generated by convert_oldhpx2cmbfast.
EXAMPLE:
convert_oldhpx2cmbfast will renormalize the polarization power spectra read
from 'cl_flat.fits', and write them in the same file.
