CMBFAST for spatially closed universes

Abstract

We extend the cosmological linear perturbation theory code CMBFAST to closed geometries. This completes the implementation of CMBFAST to all types of geometries and allows the user to perform an unlimited search in the parameter space of models. This will be specially useful for placing confidence limits on cosmological parameters from existing and future data. We discuss some of the technical issues regarding the implementation.

6 pages, 2 figures, new version of CMBFAST can be found http://www.sns.ias.edu/~matiasz/CMBFAST/cmbfast.html
