Statistical Test Of Distance-Duality Relation With Type Ia Supernovae And Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (2Nd Version)

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" (2016, preprint, arXiv:1604.04631 https://arxiv.org/abs/1604.04631). An earlier version (https://zenodo.org/record/49825) has already been made available. In this updated version, we use the recently released consensus BOSS BAO measurement results (arXiv:1607.03155) as the source of angular-diameter distances. The choices of complementary cosmological parameters are expanded to include extensions to the Planck base-ΛCDM model parameters. In addition, various programming bugs are fixed. The compressed archive file "ddmc-nosample-v2.tar.bz2" contains only the compressed SNIa data, the BAO measurements, and the Planck chain files. 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-v2.tar.bz2" contains the full set of random sample output files and analysis results in addition to those in the "ddmc-nosample-v2.tar.bz2" file. The file "CHECKSUM-sha1" contains the SHA1 hash values for verifying file integrity. Please read the README files in each package for more details and instructions.
