SHELLFISH: SHELL Finding In Spheroidal Halos
SHELLFISH (SHELL Finding In Spheroidal Halos) finds the splashback shells of individual halos within cosmological simulations. It uses a command line toolchain to produce human-readable catalogs. It requires a configuration file that describes the layout of the particle snapshots and halo catalog and which halos to measure the splashback shell for; once that is provided, Shellfish takes care of the rest. It supports numerous particle catalog types, including gotetra, Gadget-2, and Bolshoi, all text column-based halo catalogs, and consistent-trees merger trees.
