Arrow Datasets

Here we are going to see how to work with the R arrow package to make a CSV and Parquet backed database, strictly an arrow Dataset. This allows for larger than memory processing of data that is big enough to bit on your RAID array, but too big to safely process in RAM (you as standard need no less than x2 the size of the object to do anything oth...

Extra Galactic Background Light Aaron Robotham 2020-01-15 The Extra Galactic Background Light (EBL) is the flux density observed across all wavelengths of light. It is dominated by the CMB, followed by the optical and NIR (about 10-20%). There are a few ways to measure it, but my work has focussed on the method of integrating out the number counts...
