How to put a hard prior on w_de with CPL equation of state p
Posted: June 15 2017
Dear Anthony et al,
say I am using the CPL parametrization for the dark energy equation of state (or for that matter, any other 2-parameter parametrization of the equation of state), which is implemented in line 98 of camb/equations_ppf.f90:
If I understand this correctly, I can then put hard priors on w_lam and wa_ppf through param[w]= and param[wa]= in my ini file. Is this correct so far?
However, say I want to put a hard prior on w_de instead (which is given by the combination of w and wa if I understood this correctly), say e.g. I want w_de>-1 because I am studying a quintessence model, how do I impose this?
Thanks a lot! Cheers,
Sunny

Code: Select all
w_de=w_lam+wa_ppf*(1._dl-a)
