rguiding
(*args, **kwargs)¶ NAME:
rguidingPURPOSE:
calculate the guiding-center radius (the radius of a circular orbit with the same angular momentum)INPUT:
pot= potential instance or list of such instances
ro= (Object-wide default) physical scale for distances to use to convert (can be Quantity)
vo= (Object-wide default) physical scale for velocities to use to convert (can be Quantity)
use_physical= use to override Object-wide default for using a physical scale for output
OUTPUT:
R_guiding [*input_shape,nt]HISTORY:
