Welcome to the CITA LSS Mocks Portal. Here you will find information on the large-scale structure cosmological simulations, Peak Patch and WebSky, being developed at CITA, as well as publicly available simulation products from each CITA LSS Mocks Project.

Peak Patch and WebSky: How our simulations work

Peak Patch is a robust and highly efficient dark matter (DM) halo finder. WebSky is a sky-map maker that generates mock sky maps using a suite of response functions to Peak Patch DM halo catalogues. Follow the link in the section header to learn more about these codes. Follow the link in the section heading to read more about the simulations.
