MiniCourseBAO

Short talk given by @hugoriv18 and @Hayyim-H for the BAO physics and its numerical implementation.

Prerequisites

This course uses different python packages incompatibles with Windows, so it is imperative to use Linux or MacOS, or Windows with a Virtual Machine. Another requirement is having conda.

Enviroment installation:

For Debian based Linux (Ubuntu/Mint/CentOS):

You need to download the environment_Linux.yml file which contains the python configuration to create the BAOEnv environment. Then you only need to use

 conda env create -f environment_Linux.yml

For MacOS with Apple Silicon:

The process it's different. First download the environment_Mac.yml file and use

 conda env create -f environment_Mac.yml

After that, you must navigate to the folder Wheels/, activate the environment

 conda activate BAOEnv

and install those packages with

 pip install *.whl

If you are unable to install the environment then you can't run the notebook for @hugoriv18's talk. But you can create a new environment and install the basics for @Hayyim-H's talk with

 pip install cobaya getdist matplotlib
