License and Conditions of Use

This software was developed within the LSSTDESC using LSST DESC resources, and so meets the criteria given in, and is bound by, the LSST DESC Publication Policy for being a “DESC product”. We welcome requests to access the code for non-DESC use; if you wish to use the code outside DESC please contact the developers.

The firecrown package is still under development and should be considered work in progress. If you make use of any of the ideas or software in this package in your own research, please cite them as “(LSST DESC, in preparation)” and provide a link to this repository: LSSTDESC/firecrown. If you have comments, questions, or feedback, please make an issue.

firecrown calls the CCL library: LSSTDESC/CCL, which makes use of CLASS. For free use of the CLASS library, the CLASS developers require that the CLASS paper be cited:

CLASS II: Approximation schemes, D. Blas, J. Lesgourgues, T. Tram, arXiv:1104.2933, JCAP 1107 (2011) 034.

The CLASS repository can be found in http://class-code.net. CCL also uses code from the FFTLog package. We have obtained permission from the FFTLog author to include modified versions of his source code.
