wmap_shift ================================================ Massively simplified WMAP9 likelihood reduced to just shift parameter +-------------+--------------------------------------+ | File | likelihood/wmap_shift/wmap_shift.so | +-------------+--------------------------------------+ | Attribution | The WMAP Collaboration (measurement) | +-------------+--------------------------------------+ | | CosmoSIS team (code) | +-------------+--------------------------------------+ | URL | | +-------------+--------------------------------------+ | Citations | Hinshaw et al, ApJS, 208, 2, 19, 25 | +-------------+--------------------------------------+ The full WMAP likelihood is slow and requires a full Boltzmann integration (also slow) to get the CMB spectra. This module uses a lightweight alternative - the CMB shift parameter, which can be calculated from background evolution alone. This does not provide as much information as the full likelihood.
