KingProjectedAnalytic1D

class astropy.modeling.functional_models.KingProjectedAnalytic1D(amplitude=1, r_core=1, r_tide=2, **kwargs)

Bases: Fittable1DModel

Projected (surface density) analytic King Model.

Parameters:

amplitudefloat

Amplitude or scaling factor.

r_corefloat

Core radius (f(r_c) ~ 0.5 f_0)

r_tidefloat

Tidal radius.

Other Parameters:

fixeddict, optional

A dictionary {parameter_name: boolean} of parameters to not be varied during fitting. True means the parameter is held fixed. Alternatively the fixed property of a parameter may be used.

tieddict, optional

A dictionary {parameter_name: callable} of parameters which are linked to some other parameter. The dictionary values are callables providing the linking relationship. Alternatively the tied property of a parameter may be used.

boundsdict, optional

A dictionary {parameter_name: value} of lower and upper bounds of parameters. Keys are parameter names. Values are a list or a tuple of length 2 giving the desired range for the parameter. Alternatively, the min and max properties of a parameter may be used.

eqconslist, optional

A list of functions of length n such that eqcons[j](x0,*args) == 0.0 in a successfully optimized problem.

ineqconslist, optional

A list of functions of length n such that ieqcons[j](x0,*args) >= 0.0 is a successfully optimized problem.

Notes

This model approximates a King model with an analytic function. The derivation of this equation can be found in King ‘62 (equation 14). This is just an approximation of the full model and the parameters derived from this model should be taken with caution. It usually works for models with a concentration (c = log10(r_t/r_c) parameter < 2.

Model formula:

\[f(x) = A r_c^2 \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{(x^2 + r_c^2)}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{(r_t^2 + r_c^2)}}\right)^2\]

concentration

Concentration parameter of the king model.

input_units

param_names = ('amplitude', 'r_core', 'r_tide')

Names of the parameters that describe models of this type.

The parameters in this tuple are in the same order they should be passed in when initializing a model of a specific type. Some types of models, such as polynomial models, have a different number of parameters depending on some other property of the model, such as the degree.

When defining a custom model class the value of this attribute is automatically set by the Parameter attributes defined in the class body.

r_core = Parameter('r_core', value=1.0, bounds=(1.1754943508222875e-38, None))

r_tide = Parameter('r_tide', value=2.0, bounds=(1.1754943508222875e-38, None))

Methods Documentation

evaluate(x, amplitude, r_core, r_tide)
