Consistent values for density of galaxies between degree squared and steradian

I have a table of densities of galaxies : Expected number density of galaxies for photometric survey per unit area and redshift intervals, $\mathrm{d} N / \mathrm{d} \Omega \mathrm{d} z\left[\mathrm{...

How do I create a comoving quantity using YT?

I can assign a unit to a scalar using: x = YTQuantity(scalar, 'kpc') but how would I specify that the unit should be kpccm? Perhaps it doesn't even make sense to do so? Something as simple as this is ...

How to convert density from physical unit to comoving unit?

I am learning co-moving units and I am interested to see how the conversion works. If Hubble constant is assumed to be 0.7, then I want to convert $1gm/cm^3$ into comoving unit. If I want to express ...
