KS_test_hemispherical

A Hemispherical Comparison code using HEALPix and Kolmogorov–Smirnov test for probing isotropy

Uses the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test and a hemispherical comparison method to test the isotropy of distribution a quantity (here the morphological types of galaxies). It uses the HEALPix software for pixelasation of the sky sphere.

The sample data is from the HyperLeda database:http://leda.univ-lyon1.fr/

Python modules: numpy, scipy, matplotlib, math, healpy

It was used for the main analysis of this publication: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017A%26A...597A.120J​
