[yt-users] DM density field Slice

Hi Matt, I just plotted a slice of Dark_Matter_Density. It looks ok except that there are some white patches (the density legend is VIBGYOR) http://drop.io/Dark_Matter_Density# It looks like those white patches are regions from where the density data was not read. Any thoughts?

Yes, "Dark_Matter_Density field projections and slices" is what I meant. I will try replacing "Density" with "Dark_Matter_Density".

Also, let me know if I am right...

p = pc.add_projection("Density", 0)    ------- This is baryon density field.

p.modify["nparticles"](1.0)            ------- But this is DM particles (since there is no baryon particles dataset ?).

Hi Shankar,

I guess the question is sort of ill-defined.  Dark matter is discretized as particles; the idea of projecting dark matter is not the same as projecting a field quantity.  The same goes for plotting slices.

However, you can make dark matter plots.  You cna use the "add_particles" method on the PlotCollection, which accepts an axis and a width -- what it does is plot all the particles within that rectangular prism.  This can be mocked up as a projection by setting the width equal to the domain width along that axis.

You can also try using "Dark_Matter_Density", which might be easier to visualize, as a projection or a slice.

If you run into any problems with the particle plot, let us know -- it's not as well-used as the other plots, so there might be subtle bugs.  :)

Hi,

The projection, slice, velocity and overplot particles routines: They read the DM particles or gas ?

Looking at the density legend, it looks like this is baryon density field.

Is there a provision to plot projection and slice for DM ?

Also, I get this error when overplotting particles...
