CosmoMC is a Fortran 2008 Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) engine for exploring cosmological parameter space, together with Fortran and Python code for analyzing Monte-Carlo samples and importance sampling.
For basic usage of the console environment, check the Terminal application.
Getting started¶
The software is installed in /opt/CosmoMC
. This folder should be copied inside the default workspace /work
and imported when submitting new jobs, in case it is necessary to preserve changes in the configuration scripts.
The Planck likelihood code is installed /opt/plc-3.01
. The full Planck data chains can be downloaded here.
For a simple test, run the code:
$ cd /opt/CosmoMC
$ mpirun -np 7 cosmomc test.ini
Initialization¶
For information on how to use the Initialization parameter, please refer to the Initialization - Bash script section of the documentation.
