XGPaint: Fast extragalactic foreground mocks
XGPaint, written in Julia, generates maps of extragalactic foregrounds, using astrophysical models designed to replicate the statistics of the millimeter sky. The code computes simulated galaxies from the Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB), radio galaxies, and contributions and distortions from the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. XGPaint is multithreaded, and supports both HEALPix and Plate Carrée pixelizations.
