Orbit.
Lz
(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶ NAME:
LzPURPOSE:
calculate the z-component of the angular momentum at time tINPUT:
t - (optional) time at which to get the angular momentum (can be Quantity)
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:
z-component of the angular momentum [*input_shape,nt]HISTORY:
