galpy.orbit.Orbit.L¶
- Orbit.L(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶
NAME:
L
PURPOSE:
calculate the angular momentum at time t
INPUT:
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:
angular momentum [*input_shape,nt,3]
