I was able to upgrade to version 3.6.0 using pip install yt --upgrade.

The code returns a message:

SlicePlot, ProjectionPlot, and OffAxisProjectionPlot can only plot fields that
are defined on a mesh, but received the following particle fields:

    [('io', 'magnetic_field_divergence')]

Did you mean to use ParticlePlot or plot a deposited particle field instead?

I think it should be 'deposit'.

Hi Siegfried,

 

This is probably an oversight on our part that these fields are not correctly detected as having “gas” type. For most MHD codes, we have a special function that handles magnetic fields, but it looks like you are entering them in from memory using the yt.load_particles function.

 

I think if you access the field as ('io', 'magnetic_field_divergence'), It should work.

 

By the way, are you using the yt-4.0 branch for this? You probably should in this case.

 

Best,

Subject: [yt-users] magnetic fields with particle data

 

All,

 

I have output from an SPH code including magnetic fields for each particle.  

I see there are no specific fields for MHD data related to particles. For example, I have 

 

data = {
       'particle_position_x': pos_x,
       'particle_position_y': pos_y,
       'particle_position_z': pos_z,
       'particle_mass': pmass,
       'particle_velocity_x': v_x,
       'particle_velocity_y': v_y,
       'particle_velocity_z': v_z,
       'magnetic_field_x':b_x,
       'magnetic_field_y':b_y,
       'magnetic_field_z':b_z,
       'magnetic_field_divergence': eb,
       'smoothing_length': h,
       'density': rho,
       'temperature': Tgas,
       'magnetic_field_magnitude': bmag    
    }

 

and then want to plot 

 

mag = yt.SlicePlot(ds, 'z', ('gas', 'magnetic_field_divergence'),width=(6.0,'pc'))

 

But  'magnetic_field_x' is not known for particle data, so yt gives an error message.   Is there a way to circumvent the problem ?

 

Siegfried
