Detailed Description

Metric around a Kerr black-hole in Boyer-Lindquist coordinates.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Subcontractor_t

typedef Gyoto::SmartPointer< Gyoto::SmartPointee > Gyoto::SmartPointee::Subcontractor_t(Gyoto::FactoryMessenger *, std::vector< std::string > const &)
inherited

A subcontractor builds an object upon order from the Factory.

Various classes need to provide a subcontractor to be able to instantiate themselves upon order from the Factory. A subcontractor is a function (often a static member function) which accepts a pointer to a FactoryMessenger as unique parameter, communicates with the Factory using this messenger to read an XML description of the object to build, and returns this objet. SmartPointee::Subcontractor_t* is just generic enough a typedef to cast to and from other subcontractor types: Astrobj::Subcontractor_t, Metric::Subcontractor_t, Spectrum::Subcontractor_t. A subcontractor needs to be registered using the relevant Register() function: Astrobj::Register(), Metric::Register(), Spectrum::Register().

◆ circularVelocity()

virtual void Gyoto::Metric::KerrBL::circularVelocity ( double const  pos[4],

) const
virtual

Yield circular velocity at a given position.

Give the velocity of a massive particle in circular orbit at the given position projected onto the equatorial plane. Such a velocity may not exist everywhere (or anywhere) for a given metric. This method is intended to be used by Astrobj classes such as Torus or ThinDisk.

If keplerian_ is set to true, this method should return the Keplerian velcity instead (derived classes should ensure this, see KerrBL::circularVelocity() for instance).

The default implementation throws an error if keplerian_ is set to false.

Parameters
posinput: position,
veloutput: velocity,
dir1 for corotating, -1 for counterrotating.

) const
inherited

Computes dual 1-form Compute the dual 1-form of 4-vector.

Parameters
IN_ARRAY1_14-position;
IN_ARRAY1_2quadrivector;
[out]ARGOUT_ARRAY3output 1-form

◆ fillElement()

virtual void Gyoto::Object::fillElement ( Gyoto::FactoryMessenger fmp) const
virtualinherited

Fill the XML element for this Object.

The base implementation simply calls fillProperty() for each Property defined for the Object.

Derived classes should avoid overriding fillElement(). It may make sense occasionally, e.g. to make sure that the metric is output first.

To customize how a given Property is rendered, it is better to override fillProperty().

If this method is overridden, the implementation should in general call fillElement() on the direct base.

Reimplemented in Gyoto::Astrobj::Complex, Gyoto::Spectrometer::Complex, and Gyoto::Scenery.

◆ fillProperty()

virtual void Gyoto::Object::fillProperty ( Gyoto::FactoryMessenger fmp,
Property const &  p 
) const
virtualinherited

Output a single Property to XML.

The base implementation decides what to do based on the p.type. The format matches how setParameters() an setParameter() would interpret the XML descition.

Overriding this method should be avoided, but makes sense in some cases (for instance Screen::fillProperty() selects a different unit for Distance based on its magnitude, so that stellar sizes are expressed in solar radii while smaller sizes can be expressed in meters and larger sizes in parsecs).

Overriding implementation should fall-back on calling the implementation in the direct parent class:

class A: public Object {};
class B: public A {
using B::setParameter;
Property const &p) const ;
};
void B::fillProperty(Gyoto::FactoryMessenger *fmp,
Property const &p) const {
if (name=="Duff") fmp->doSomething();
else A::fillProperty(fmp, p);
}
Factory / SmartPointee::Subcontractor_t interface.

Parameters
listenerpointer to the new listener

◆ isStopCondition()

virtual int Gyoto::Metric::Generic::isStopCondition ( double const  coord[8]) const
virtualinherited

Check whether integration should stop.

The integrating loop will ask this the Metric through this method whether or not it is happy to continue the integration. Typically, the Metric should answer 0 when everything is fine, 1 when too close to the event horizon, inside the BH...

Parameters
coord8-coordinate vector to check.

◆ isThreadSafe()

virtual bool Gyoto::Object::isThreadSafe ( ) const
virtualinherited

Whether this class is thread-safe.

Return True if this object is thread-safe, i.e. if an instance and its clone can be used in parallel threads (in the context of Scenery::raytrace()). Known objects which are not thread-safe include Lorene metrics and everything from the Python plug-in.

The default implementation considers that the class itself is thread safe and recurses into the declared properties to check whether they are safe too. Classes that abide to the Object/Property paradigm and are themselves thread-safe have nothing special to do.

Objects that clone children in their copy constructor that are not declared as properties must take these children into account.

Classes that are never thread-safe must declare it. It acn be easily done using GYOTO_OBJECT_THREAD_SAFETY in the class declaration and GYOTO_PROPERTY_THREAD_UNSAFE in the class definition.

◆ kind()

std::string const &  name,
std::string const &  content,
std::string const &  unit 
)
virtualinherited

Set parameter by Property (and name)

This function is used when parsing an XML description, if Property (p) of this name is found (i.e. either p.name or p.name_false is equal to name). Implementation should fall-back on calling the direct's parent implementation:

class A: public Object {};
class B: public A {
using B::setParameter;
virtual void setParameter(Gyoto::Property const &p,
std::string name,
std::string content,
std::string unit);
};
void B::setParameter(Gyoto::Property const &p,
std::string name,
std::string content,
std::string unit) {
if (name=="Duff") doSomething(content, unit);
else A::setParameter(p, name, content, unit);
}
virtual int setParameter(std::string name, std::string content, std::string unit)
Set parameter by name.
Parameters
pProperty that matches name (p.name == name or p.name_false == name)
nameXML name of the parameter (XML entity)
contentstring representation of the value
unitstring representation of the unit

Reimplemented in Gyoto::Astrobj::PolishDoughnut.

◆ setParameter() [2/2]

virtual int Gyoto::Object::setParameter ( std::string  name,
std::string  content,
std::string  unit 
)
virtualinherited

Set parameter by name.

This function is used when parsing an XML description, if no Property of this name is found. Overriding implementation should fall-back on calling the direct's parent implementation:

class A: public Object {};
class B: public A {
using B::setParameter;
virtual int setParameter(std::string name,
std::string content,
std::string unit);
};
int B::setParameter(std::string name,
std::string content,
std::string unit) {
if (name=="Duff") doSomething(content, unit);
else return A::setParameter(name, content, unit);
return 0; // name was known
}
Parameters
nameXML name of the parameter (XML entity). This may have a path component, e.g. "Astrobj::Radius", in which case a property named "Astrobj" will be sought in the current object, and setParameter will be called recusrively on this Astrobj with Radius as name.
contentstring representation of the value
unitstring representation of the unit
Returns
0 if this parameter is known, 1 if it is not.

Reimplemented in Gyoto::Astrobj::EquatorialHotSpot, Gyoto::Metric::KerrKS, Gyoto::Astrobj::Star, and Gyoto::Metric::RotStar3_1.

◆ setParameters()

virtual void Gyoto::Object::setParameters ( Gyoto::FactoryMessenger fmp)
virtualinherited

Main loop for parsing Properties from XML description.

 This function queries the FactoryMessenger for elements to parse,
 and tries to matche each element to a Property to set it
 accordingly.

 Any class that tries to be buildable from XML must supply a
 subcontractor (for base classes such as Metric, Astrobj, Spectrum
 and Spectrometer, it is done as a template that must be
 specialized for each class).

 This subcontractor typically looks somewhat like this:
SmartPointer<MyKind> gg = new MyKind();
gg -> setParameters(fmp);
return gg;
}
virtual void setParameters(Gyoto::FactoryMessenger *fmp)
Main loop for parsing Properties from XML description.
Pointers performing reference counting.
Definition: GyotoSmartPointer.h:135
SmartPointer< Astrobj::Generic > Subcontractor(FactoryMessenger *fmp, std::vector< std::string > const &plugin)
A template for Subcontractor_t functions.
Definition: GyotoAstrobj.h:76
 Although this is discouraged, it is possible to override the
 following functions to customize how XML entities are parsed:
   - setParameters() if low-level access to the
     FactoryMessenger is required;
   - setParameter(std::string name,
                  std::string content,
                  std::string unit)
     to interpret an entity that does not match a Property
     (e.g. alternative name);
   - setParameter(Gyoto::Property const &p,
                  std::string const &name,
                  std::string const &content,
                  std::string const &unit)
     to change how a Property is interpreted.

Reimplemented in Gyoto::Astrobj::Generic, Gyoto::Astrobj::Complex, Gyoto::Spectrometer::Complex, Gyoto::Astrobj::EquatorialHotSpot, Gyoto::Photon, Gyoto::Astrobj::Star, Gyoto::Spectrometer::Uniform, and Gyoto::Astrobj::OscilTorus.

Reimplemented in Gyoto::Metric::NumericalMetricLorene.

◆ SysPrimeToTdot()

virtual double Gyoto::Metric::Generic::SysPrimeToTdot ( const double  coord[4],
const double  v[3] 
) const
virtualinherited

Compute tdot as a function of dr/dt, dtheta/dt and dphi/dt. Everything is in geometrical units.

Parameters
coord4-position (geometrical units);
v3-velocity dx1/dx0, dx2/dx0, dx3/dx0;
Returns
tdot = dx0/dtau.

◆ tellListeners()

virtual void Gyoto::Hook::Teller::tellListeners ( )
protectedvirtualinherited

Call tell() on each hooked Listener.

Whenever a Teller mutates, it should warn any Listener hooked to it using tellListeners().

◆ unhook()

virtual void Gyoto::Hook::Teller::unhook ( Listener listener)
virtualinherited

Stop listening.

Use from a Hook::Listener object method:

teller->unhook(this)

where "this" is a Listener, "teller" is a Teller, and "this" has called teller->hook(this) previously.

Parameters
listenerpointer to the listener

◆ unitLength()

double Gyoto::Metric::Generic::unitLength ( ) const
inherited

M * G / c^2, M is in kg, unitLength in meters.

Metrics implementations are free to express lengths and distances in whatever unit they see fit (presumably most often geometrical units). This function returns this unit in SI (meters).

◆ zamoVelocity()

virtual void Gyoto::Metric::KerrBL::zamoVelocity ( double const  pos[4],
double  vel[4] 
) const
virtual

Yield ZAMO velocity at a given position.

Give the velocity of a zero angular momentul observer (whatever is closest to "at rest"). The default implementation simply projects (1, 0, 0, 0) othogonally along ephi and normalizes it, thus ensuring that vel is orthogonal to ephi.

Parameters
posinput: position,
veloutput: velocity,

◆ delta_max_over_r_

double Gyoto::Metric::Generic::delta_max_over_r_
protectedinherited

Numerical tuning parameter.

Ensure that delta (the numerical integration step) is never larger than a fraction of the distance between the current location and the center of the coordinate system.

For investigations close to the event horizon, 0.5 is usually fine. If high accuracy is needed long after deflection (weak lensing), then this must be smaller. A good test is to look at a MinDistance map for a FixedStar: it must be smooth.

◆ difftol_

double Gyoto::Metric::KerrBL::difftol_
protected

Numerical tuning parameter.

Small values yield more accurate integration at the expanse of computing time.

◆ kind_

std::string Gyoto::Object::kind_
protectedinherited

The "kind" that is output in the XML entity.

E.g. for an Astrobj, fillElement() will ensure

<Astrobj kind="kind_" ...>...</Astrobj>
const std::string kind() const
Get kind_.
