ACT (AdvACT) DR6 Derived Data Products


Products from the joint ACT + SPT CMB Lensing analysis presented by ACT and SPT Collaborations (2025).

We provide a python likelihood that can be used in the Cobaya package (https://cobaya.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), or as a standalone code, as well as a tar bundle containing Cobaya MCMC chain output described in the paper linked above. See the readme contained in the likelihood bundle for more information.

If you use this software and/or the associated data, please cite the following papers:

  • ACT and SPT Collaborations (2025), PRL accepted, arXiv:2504.20038
  • F. Ge et al (SPT-3G Collaboration) 2024, arXiv: 2411.06000
