Full Changelog: 0.5.0...v0.6.0

v0.5.0

Updates to a number of features including:

• multiplane
• object names
• reformat source to now be more general light
• forward raytrace
• new basic simulator object

v0.4.8

Bug fixes to TNFW class. Pixelated Convergence also has more correct FFT convolution.

v0.4.7

Bug fix for pixelated convergence FFT padding mode. Caustic now has a website! TNFW online mostly

v0.4.6

Added the TNFW lens to caustic

v0.4.4

Multiplane lensing now includes Effective convergence including both the divergence and curl components.

Forward raytracing now available.

mass sheet lens added

bug fixes in graph viewer and pixelscale arguments

v0.4.1

Mechanics upgrade. The parameter handling system has been upgraded internally. It now allows batching and better control over dtype. The Packed management system now better understands inputs to functions, it can handle keywords in arguments. The name for every module is now optional, it will automatically generate a name if none is given. Many more small changes.

Renaming

This release performs a major refactor to rename all methods with descriptive names. This includes:

• Greek letters alpha, kappa, psi renamed to deflection_angle, convergence, potential
• deflection_angle made more explicit with reduced_deflection_angle and physical_deflection_angle
• ThickLens lensing made more explicit, base deflection angle calculator is pure raytrace, now physical_deflection_angle throws an error, reduced_deflection_angle throws a warning and points to effective_reduced_deflection_angle
• project moved from src directory to simpler caustic directory
• cosmology made more explicit with dist to distance and Sigma_cr to critical_surface_density
• Pixelated source and lens made more explicit with source now called Pixelated and lens now called PixelatedConvergence leaving open for future work: PixelatedPotential and other variants
• Sersic parameters renamed to match literature with index going to n also now q is a true axis ratio which stretches only the minor axis and not an alternative definition which stretches both axes
