reset_nbody_scale¶
- clustertools.cluster.operations.reset_nbody_scale(cluster, mass=True, radii=True, rvirial=True, projected=False, **kwargs)[source]¶
Assign new conversions for real mass, size, and velocity to Nbody units
kwargs are passed to the virial_radius function. See the virial_radius documenation in functions.py
- Parameters:
- clusterclass
StarCluster instance
- massbool
find new mass conversion (default: True)
- radiibool
find new radius conversion (default: True)
- rvirialbool (default: True)
use virial radius to set conversion rate for radii as opposed to the approximation that rbar=4/3 rm
- projectedbool
use projected values to calculate radius conversion (default: False)
- Returns:
- zmbarfloat
mass conversion
- rbarfloat
radius conversion
- vbarfloat
velocity conversion
- tbarfloat
time conversion
