clustertools.analysis.profiles.beta_prof(cluster, mmin=None, mmax=None, rmin=None, rmax=None, nrad=20, vmin=None, vmax=None, emin=None, emax=None, kwmin=0, kwmax=15, npop=None, indx=None, bins=None, projected=False, normalize=False, plot=False, **kwargs)

Measure the anisotropy profile of the cluster

Parameters:

clusterclass

StarCluster

mmin/mmaxfloat

minimum and maximum stellar mass

rmin/rmaxfloat

minimum and maximum stellar radii

nradint

number of radial bins

vmin/vmaxfloat

minimum and maximum stellar velocity

emin/emaxfloat

minimum and maximum stellar energy

kwmin/kwmaxfloat

minimum and maximum stellar type (kw)

npopint

population number

indxfloat

user defined boolean array from which to extract the subset

binsfloat

User defined bins in the form of (rlower,rmean,rupper) (default: None)

projectedbool

use projected values and constraints (default:False)

normalizebool

normalize radial bins by cluster’s half-mass radius (default: False)

plotbool

plot the density profile (default: False)

Returns:

rprofnfloat

natural log of radius (normalized by half-mass radius)

betaproffloat

orbital anisotropy parameter beta

Other Parameters:

kwragsstr

key word arguments for plotting
