Here you will find the data,
MANGLE polygons used to mask WISE data,
and
HEALPix masks used in
DiPompeo et al. (2017).
See the paper for full details, and please cite it if you use these products.
The data masks are in .ply format, and can be read into IDL using read_mangle_polygons.pro
in
IDLUTILS.
The mask generated with Allwise data, as well as SDSS bright stars (Galactic coordinates)
pixelized with a '6s' scheme:
wise_mask_allwise_stars.ply (note that this mask contains bright stars masked across the whole sky, not just the SDSS footprint).
The mask generated with Allsky data (Galactic coordinates), pixelized with a '6s' scheme:
wise_mask_allsky.ply
The SDSS DR8 footprint (equatorial coordinates), pixelized with a '6s' scheme:
sdss_dr8_footprint.ply
The SDSS bad field mask (equatorial coordinates), pixelized with a '9s' scheme:
sdss_badfields.ply.ply
The SDSS BOSS footrprint (equatorial coordinates):
sdss_boss.ply.ply
The following files are HEALPix fits maps used for CMB lensing measurements, which incorporate
many of the polygon masks above. They can be read using HEALPix tools, such as read_fits_map.pro
HEALPix nside=2048 full-sky WISE mask (Galactic coordinates), incorporating the two WISE masks above:
mask_nside2048.fits
HEALPix nside=2048 SDSS region mask (Galactic coordinates), incorporating all the masks above:
mask_sdss_nside2048.fits
The same as the full-sky HEALPix mask above, limited to |b| > 40 degrees:
mask_highlat_nside2048.fits
The same as the SDSS HEALPix mask above, limited to |b| > 40 degrees:
mask_sdss_highlat_nside2048.fits
Below are files containing the full WISE, SDSS-limited WISE, obscured, and unobscured sample used for
the bias and halo mass measurements in the paper:
all_wise_quasars.fits
wise_sdss.fits
obscured.fits
unobscured.fits
IDL code to make the measurements and generate models in the paper can be found on M. DiPompeo's GitHub page.
Angular auto/cross correlations
CMB Lensing Cross-correlations
Halo Masses
Most of the above codes rely on
CAMB to generate model matter power spectra, and are built to use our IDL wrapper:
