Problems with running Rockstar from Yt
by Nick Gnedin July 13, 2021

July 13, 2021

It appears that Yt does not run Rockstar correctly. Here are 2 issues we discovered so far: 1. DM particle mass and hence halo masses are incorrect in a simulation with baryons. Here are lines from one of out_*.list for a simulation with 1024^3 particles in a 40 cMpc/h box: #Om = 0.303600; Ol = 0.696400; h = 0.681400 #Particle mass: 4.22991e+06 Msun/h The particle mass should be 2.77536623e11*0.3036/0.6814*40**3/1024**3 = 7370552 Msun Instead, the reported value is 4.22991e+06 Msun/h = … [View More]

Light cone projection
by Tseng, Po-Hsun July 13, 2021

July 13, 2021

Hi all, I would like to make a light cone projection from hydrodynamic, not cosmological, data set. What I mean by **light cone projection** is: Given the coordinate of camera in simulation box and opening angle of the light cone, we can project 3D gas distribution onto a 2D plane. I found there is a similar API in the yt manual can do this, but it is for cosmological analysis not for hydrodynamics. Does anyone has suggestions? Thanks.

ANN: yt 4.0.0 release
by Madicken Munk July 7, 2021

July 7, 2021

Dear yt users and developers, The yt community is proud to announce the release of yt-4.0! yt (http://yt-project.org) is an open source, community-developed toolkit for analysis and visualization of volumetric data. This release features a complete reworking of a number of internal components, most importantly those related to particles and discrete points. In keeping with this, we expect that some scripts used for analysis will require modifications; information about "what's new" as well … [View More]as instructions for how to update analysis scripts can be found at: https://yt-project.org/docs/4.0.0/yt4differences.html . A set of highlights of the pull requests that went into this release can be found here: https://gist.github.com/matthewturk/7a1f21d98aa5188de7645eda082ce4e6#file-h… A full listing of the pull requests that went into this release can be found here: https://gist.github.com/matthewturk/7a1f21d98aa5188de7645eda082ce4e6#file-y… This release has been years in the making, and features contributions from dozens of individuals, many of whom were new to the project. It marks the culmination of a set of wide-reaching infrastructure changes that result in much higher fidelity to the underlying data for particle datasets. At the end of this email you can find a non-exhaustive list of individuals who have contributed to this release; many of them made their first contribution during this release! Binaries for yt 4.0 are available via pip and conda. If you use conda to manage your Python installation, you can update yt via: $ conda update -c conda-forge yt If you manage your Python installation with pip, you can update yt via: $ python -m pip install -U yt For more information, including installation instructions, links to community resources, and information on contributing to yt’s development, please see the yt homepage at https://yt-project.org and the documentation for yt-4.0 at http://yt-project.org/docs/4.0.0 We especially thank Nathan Goldbaum for his many years of work and contributions to this release and to the yt community. yt is the product of a large community of developers and users and we are extraordinarily grateful for and proud of their contributions. Please forward this announcement on to any interested parties.
