Step 1.1: GLEAM #47

Closed steven-murray closed 4 years ago

steven-murray commented 4 years ago

This test is adds point-source foregrounds, which come in the form of GLEAM. We use a power-law EoR P(k), the same as used in various 0.x steps.

Why this test is required

It is important to ascertain whether pspec is able to recover un-biased EoR on scales at which it dominates, even in the presence of foregrounds. The foregrounds produced will also serve as simulations for many other tests.

Summary

A brief step-by-step description of the proposed test follows:

[] Obtain simulated visibilities of GLEAM using RIMEz [] Use pspec to obtain P(k) [] Create notebook that displays the analysis
