[yt-users] Analysis of projected quantities

[David Collins]

Hi, Harald--

If you make a projection like this:
>>> proj = pf.h.proj(0,'Density')

then proj has most of the quantities you want.

>>> proj['Density']

will give you a flat array of the density in the 2d projection.

>>> proj.keys()
['pdy', 'pdx', 'weight_field', 'px', 'py', 'Density']

here, 'pdx' and 'pdy' are the half-widths of the zones, 'px' and 'py' are
the positions of the zone centers

It also will get projections that you haven't already done.  For instance,
proj['x-velocity'] will make a projection of the x-velocity, then return
the array.

I don't know if you can stick it into BinnedProfiles, but since the arrays
are 2d, I always just make my own binning loop, I find it fast enough even
on pretty big datasets.

I hope that helps,
d.
