- Potential.plotDensity(t=0.0, rmin=0.0, rmax=1.5, nrs=21, zmin=-0.5, zmax=0.5, nzs=21, phi=None, xy=False, ncontours=21, savefilename=None, aspect=None, log=False, justcontours=False, **kwargs)[source]¶
NAME:
plotDensity
PURPOSE:
plot the density of this potential
INPUT:
t= time to plot potential at
rmin= minimum R (can be Quantity) [xmin if xy]
rmax= maximum R (can be Quantity) [ymax if xy]
nrs= grid in R
zmin= minimum z (can be Quantity) [ymin if xy]
zmax= maximum z (can be Quantity) [ymax if xy]
nzs= grid in z
phi= (None) azimuth to use for non-axisymmetric potentials
xy= (False) if True, plot the density in X-Y
ncontours= number of contours
justcontours= (False) if True, just plot contours
savefilename= save to or restore from this savefile (pickle)
log= if True, plot the log density
OUTPUT:
plot to output device
