radial_profiles.einasto_mass_profile

radial_profiles.einasto_mass_profile(M, r_s, n)

A mass profile where the logarithmic slope is a power-law [Eina65]. The form here is that given in Section 2 of [RvGB12].

Parameters:

• M (float) – The total mass of the profile in M.

• r_s (float) – The scale radius in kpc.

• n (float) – The inverse power-law index.

Returns:

The corresponding radial profile object.

Return type:

RadialProfile
