Detailed Description

Spherically-symmetric arbitrary density profile potential provided by CMassModel.

Member Function Documentation

CPotential * smile::CPotentialSpherical::clone ( ) const
virtual

Return a pointer to a copy of this instance of potential.

A standard copy constructor or assignment is disabled because of different amount of data needed to be copied in different derived classes).

Implements smile::CPotential.

void smile::CPotentialSpherical::Force ( const double  xyz[N_DIM],
const double  t,
double *  force,
double *  forceDeriv = NULL 
) const
virtual

Compute forces and, optionally, force derivatives at a given point.

Parameters
[in]xyz- coordinates of the point to compute forces (array of 3 numbers)
[in]t- time to compute forces (matters only if potential is time-dependent)
[out]force- computed values of -d Phi/d x_i; output array must exist and contain N_DIM values.
[out]forceDeriv- if not NULL, then also compute the second derivatives of potential (which is a symmetric matrix of size N_DIM^2, thus the array must be of size N_DIM*(N_DIM+1)/2 ): first 3 values contain $ -d^2 \Phi/d x_i^2 $, second three contain mixed derivatives $ -d^2 \Phi/d x_1 d x_2, -d^2 \Phi/d x_2 d x_3, -d^2 \Phi/d x_3 d x_1 $.

Implements smile::CPotential.

double smile::CPotentialSpherical::Phi ( double  X,
double  Y,
double  Z,
double  t = 0 
) const
virtual

Return potential at a given spatial point (possibly a time-varying one).

Implements smile::CPotential.
