emcee: The MCMC Hammer

dfm/emcee 16 Feb 2012

The algorithm behind emcee has several advantages over traditional MCMC sampling methods and it has excellent performance as measured by the autocorrelation time (or function calls per independent sample).

Atmospheric Reconnaissance of TRAPPIST-1 b with JWST/NIRISS: Evidence for Strong Stellar Contamination in the Transmission Spectra

dfm/emcee 13 Sep 2023

The two transmission spectra show moderate to strong evidence of contamination from unocculted stellar heterogeneities, which dominates the signal in both visits.

$B$-mode forecast of CMB-Bh$\overline{a}$rat

dfm/emcee 24 Oct 2021

For a simplistic foreground model (only polarized dust and synchrotron), both component separation pipelines can achieve the desired sensitivity of ECHO, i. e. $\sigma (r =0) \sim (0. 4 - 0. 7)\times 10^{-3}$.

Prospects for precision cosmology with the 21 cm signal from the dark ages

dfm/emcee 15 May 2023

A measurement of the global (sky-averaged) 21 cm signal to the precision of thermal noise from a 1, 000 h integration would yield a measurement within 10% of a combination of cosmological parameters.

Caustic and hydrostatic mass bias: Implications for modified gravity

dfm/emcee 9 Jan 2024

We propose and perform a joint analysis of the two different mass estimates of galaxy clusters, namely the hydrostatic and caustic techniques.
