Statistical Test of Distance–Duality Relation with Type Ia Supernovae and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (3rd version)

Summary

This package contains data and processing tools for replicating the research presented in the paper "Statistical Test of Distance–Duality Relation with Type Ia Supernovae and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations" (2018, ApJ, DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/aac88f, arXiv:1604.04631).

The compressed archive file "ddmc-nosample-v3.1.tar.xz" contains only the compressed SNIa data, the BAO measurements, and 3rd-party data files used in this work.  The random samples can be re-created by the tools included in the package.  This is the file suitable for low-speed download.

The file "ddmc-v3.1.tar.xz" contains the full set of random sample output files and analysis results in addition to those in the "ddmc-nosample-v3.1.tar.xz" file. This is the archive containing all the data and figure files used directly in the paper.

To uncompress the files, the XZ Utils software package is required.

The file "CHECKSUM.asc" is a GPG-clearsigned text file containing the SHA-512 checksum values for file integrity verification.  The text file itself is signed with the GPG key 0xE977A6E990102402 available from keyservers.

Please read the README files in each package for more details and instructions.

Release notes for version 3.1

Version 3.1 is a minor revision with the addition of some alternative input parameter distributions.

Release notes for version 3

This is the 3rd version representing a re-written analysis of the distance-duality test. This new version updated and renamed the complementary parameter (CP) sets to match the ones used in the paper. New results concerning the interpretation of results as a diagnostics of distance measurement systematics are presented. Also included are updated utility scripts, new tests for Gaussian approximation to the results, and new data-visualization scripts.
