fields.RadialRandomVelocityField.map_field_to_particles

RadialRandomVelocityField.map_field_to_particles(cluster_particles, ptype='gas', units=None)

Map the 3D field to a set of particles, creating new particle fields. This uses tri-linear interpolation.

Parameters:

• cluster_particles (ClusterParticles) – The ClusterParticles object which will have new fields added.

• ptype (string, optional) – The particle type to add the new fields to. Default: “gas”, which will almost always be the case.

• units (string, optional) – Change the units of the field. Default: None, which implies they will remain in “galactic” units.
