Hi all, I'd like to do some analysis on projected quantities (or column densities) and quantities derived from those, like ratios etc. How can I use the output of some projections to derive some other quantities from it? How can I use those as inputs for BinnedProfileXd()-stuff, to compute profiles and phase plots? This would be extremely useful for analyzing my disk galaxy simulations. Thanks for your help. Best. Harald

Hi, Harald-- If you make a projection like this:
proj = pf.h.proj(0,'Density')
then proj has most of the quantities you want.
proj['Density']
will give you a flat array of the density in the 2d projection.
proj.keys() ['pdy', 'pdx', 'weight_field', 'px', 'py', 'Density']
here, 'pdx' and 'pdy' are the half-widths of the zones, 'px' and 'py' are the positions of the zone centers It also will get projections that you haven't already done. For instance, proj['x-velocity'] will make a projection of the x-velocity, then return the array. I don't know if you can stick it into BinnedProfiles, but since the arrays are 2d, I always just make my own binning loop, I find it fast enough even on pretty big datasets. I hope that helps, d.
