by j s oishi March 22, 2011

March 22, 2011

Hi All, We'd like some feedback on your use and your opinions about the future of yt. It's really short, and no questions are mandatory, so feel free to fill in as many or as few as you'd like. Please visit https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dGlFazdOcUtFbHJLVU80a2NGM3… and answer away. The last user survey was really useful for us to help make yt-2.0 what it was. The future of yt is looking really bright, and we'd like to ensure it is as useful as we can make it. If you'd like … [View More]

Hi all, I was trying to use a script that calls yt.func.only_on_root to write the results to an output file if my script is ran in parallel, when it gave me the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "QuantityTotal.py", line 127, in <module> yt.funcs.only_on_root(flush, "frames/StarFormationRate.txt", "%12.12e %12.12e %12.12e %12.12i %12.12e %12.12i %12.12i %12.12i %12.12i\n" % (yr, TotEmis, redshift, num_sources, 0, Ion10, IonE3, IonE5, num_star)) NameError: name 'yt' … [View More]

memory required estimate
by gso＠physics.ucsd.edu March 18, 2011

March 18, 2011

Hi everyone, I have a simple memory question... I was running my script that uses extract_connected_set on a tiny 64 cube test data and it worked fine (using the install script with python2.7), but when I tried it on a big 1024 cube dataset I got the error at the end of the email on a triton pdaf node 8 core 64GB of memory (was using only 1 core, only used more core for their memory). I believe I may have underestimated the amount of memory I needed. If I have am extract connected set on a … [View More]

Install Script Upgrade to Python 2.7 - fix for OS X 10.6 compilation
by Matthew Turk March 17, 2011

March 17, 2011

Hi all (Especially Emilio and Peng), >From some detective work by Emilio, Peng, Stephen Skory and myself, it looks like an upgrade to Python 2.7 fixes the installation issues on OSX 10.6. I have updated the install_script.sh for the *unstable* branch to use Python 2.7, along with an update to Mercurial 1.8.1 and HDF5 1.8.6. This new version of the install script also brings with it the yt-supplemental repository, which is a clearing house for several related repositories, including the … [View More]

hierarchy file for light cone simulation
by Britton Smith March 15, 2011

March 15, 2011

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make some projections of the data from the Santa Fe Light Cone simulation, but it's getting hung trying to parse the hierarchy file. After looking around, I noticed that the one dataset that I had success with has a different format for the hierarchy file than the ones that aren't working. The ones that are working have hierarchy files that look like this: Grid = 1 GridRank = 3 GridDimension = 134 70 70 GridStartIndex = 3 3 3 GridEndIndex = 130 … [View More]

Volume Rendering and Weighted Fields
by John ZuHone March 14, 2011

March 14, 2011

Hi all, I have figured out how to do an off-axis projection using the camera interface, it was actually pretty straightforward. I'm primarily concerned with simulating X-ray images for clusters, and I would like to extend my process to projections of weighted quantities, say emission-weighted temperature (or "spectroscopic-like" temperature, which means weighting by dens*temp**(-alpha)). I imagine that I have to use MultiVariateTransferFunction for this... does anyone have a good example of … [View More]
