Return to Analysis Utilities

This page documents the planetPlots function of Python module analysisUtils.

This function will create uv amplitude vs. uvdistance visibility plots for the specified objects, date, frequencies and ALMA configurations. The output is a multipage collection of a grid of plots, one page per object, where rows are configurations and columns are frequencies.


Usage

au.planetPlots(objects='Venus,Ceres,Vesta,Pallas,Juno,Jupiter,Callisto,Europa,Ganymede,Io,Titan,Uranus,Neptune',

              date='2013-01-01', freqs = [100,230,345,690],
              standard = 'Butler-JPL-Horizons 2012', alma_cycle=None,
              configs = ['aca_cycle1.cfg','alma_cycle1_1.cfg',
                         'alma_cycle1_2.cfg','alma_cycle1_3.cfg',
                         'alma_cycle1_4.cfg','alma_cycle1_5.cfg',
                         'alma_cycle1_6.cfg'])

objects: comma-delimited string of planetary bodies (see help setjy) date: observing date, all plots are a 1-second snapshot at transit freqs: a list of frequencies, in GHz standard: the model in casa to use alma_cycle: 0 or 1 (will automatically fill in the configs) configs: alternative to alma_cycle, specify a list of configurations
