A Save Time with CLASS Code: Neat Trick for Background Quantity Evolution

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on optimizing the CLASS code by bypassing the internal Boltzmann solver to save time when calculating background quantities. Users seek methods to directly compute background evolution without evaluating perturbations or transfer functions. The main goal is to streamline the process for those only interested in background dynamics. Suggestions include modifying the code or using specific settings to achieve this efficiency. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for faster computations in cosmological simulations.

Is there a neat way to "not" run the internal Boltzmann solver (for perturbations) in CLASS code and rather just solve for the background quantities? This way I can save the time otherwise spent in evaluating the perturbations and transfer functions. I am only interested in the time evolution of background quantities.
 

Thread 'Illuminating Black Hole Shadows with Dark Matter Annihilation'

Abstract The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has significantly advanced our ability to study black holes, achieving unprecedented spatial resolution and revealing horizon-scale structures. Notably, these observations feature a distinctive dark shadow—primarily arising from faint jet emissions—surrounded by a bright photon ring. Anticipated upgrades of the EHT promise substantial improvements in dynamic range, enabling deeper exploration of low-background regions, particularly the inner shadow...

Thread 'Matter density right after the decoupling'

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination_(cosmology) Was a matter density right after the decoupling low enough to consider the vacuum as the actual vacuum, and not the medium through which the light propagates with the speed lower than ##({\epsilon_0\mu_0})^{-1/2}##? I'm asking this in context of the calculation of the observable universe radius, where the time integral of the inverse of the scale factor is multiplied by the constant speed of light ##c##.
