Summary of the main properties of the SPL and OBB methods ray-tracing methods.

OBB SPL
Deflection (per plane) Integration of transverse acceleration Particles adaptively smoothed and projected
onto density planes
Large scale Matter outside the lightcone is taken into account Edge effects due to Fourier transforms
Small scale Uses the multi-scale RAMSES potential Smoothing reduces small-scale features
Cells missing/in excess Produces small-scale artefacts Unaffected
Matter component Only for the total matter Can individually consider DM, stars, and gas
