Dipole analysis

This is intended to study the dipole structure in the Gaia DR2 quasar proper motions (uses Lmax=1 and type 2 and 3 data):

Quadrupole analysis

I would next like to run two quadrupole (Lmax=2) analyses (one with and one without --mod_basis) on the same dataset. These will be used to show the benefit of the change of basis.

  • VSH_basis run: (i.e. python3 main.py --Lmax 2 --dataset 4)
  • Mod_basis run: (i.e. python3 main.py --Lmax 2 --dataset 4 --mod_basis)

Full analysis

For the final "production runs" we will only use mod_basis. I would like to try a run with Lmax=3 and a run with Lmax=4 on the same dataset. These are the runs we will actually use to place limits.

  • Lmax=3 run: (i.e. python3 main.py --Lmax 3 --dataset 4 --mod_basis)
  • Lmax=4 run: (i.e. python3 main.py --Lmax 4 --dataset 4 --mod_basis)
