摘要:

我们讨论了球形针状体及其性质。针状小波是球面小波的一种形式,它不依赖于任何切平面近似,在像素空间和谐波空间都具有良好的局部化特性;此外,针状小波系数在任何固定的角距离上都是渐近不相关的,这使得它们在统计过程中的应用非常有前途。考虑到这些性质,我们相信针状体在分析不完整天空的宇宙微波背景(CMB)数据以及其他宇宙学观测中可能会特别有用。作为最后一个优点,我们强调,针头的实现在计算上非常方便,并且可以完全依赖于标准数据分析包,例如HEALPix。

英文摘要:

We discuss Spherical Needlets and their properties. Needlets are a form of spherical wavelets which do not rely on any kind of tangent plane approximation and enjoy good localization properties in both pixel and harmonic space; moreover needlets coefficients are asymptotically uncorrelated at any fixed angular distance, which makes their use in statistical procedures very promising. In view of these properties, we believe needlets may turn out to be especially useful in the analysis of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data on the incomplete sky, as well as of other cosmological observations. As a final advantage, we stress that the implementation of needlets is computationally very convenient and may rely completely on standard data analysis packages such as HEALPix.
