Caustic Mass Estimator for Galaxy Clusters

This is Python code with my zero experience in writing publicly distributed code. Pointers welcome! For the original technique see Diaferio (1999) This code is based off Gifford et al. (2013) and Gifford & Miller (2013)

  • Dan Gifford, University of Michigan
  • Nicholas Kern, University of Michigan
  • Christopher Miller, University of Michigan
