Abstract

Fisher forecasts are a common tool in cosmology with applications ranging from survey planning to the development of new cosmological probes. While frequently adopted, they are subject to numerical instabilities that need to be carefully investigated to ensure accurate and reproducible results. This research note discusses these challenges using the example of a weak lensing data vector and proposes procedures that can help in their solution.
