Detailed Description

Coronal model interface.

Function Documentation

def interface_corona.compute_field	(		model,
			seed_points
	)

Computes magnetic field lines associated to seed_points at surface rss up to solar surface with a given magnetogram located at magmappath.

Parameters

model	Model used. One of interface_corona.info
seed_points	List of Coordinate of seed points at surface rss.

Returns

Returns a list fieldlines with as many elements as seed_points + path to datacube

Todo:

Return Bfield at rss (no need for the entire datacube, only for HCS plotting).

Add method for 3Dcube reading + fieldline computing (model_datacube2fieldline).

Here is the call graph for this function:

def interface_corona.write_output	(		time_pfss_min,
			time_pfss_max,
			crss_min,
			crss_max,
			rss,
			fieldline_min,
			fieldline_max
	)

Write report in dir.output/output_pfss_min/max about computed coronal fieldlines.
Usefull for SolarSoft comparison.
Format is:

#seed point r lat lon
            r(seed) lat(seed) lon(seed)
#line       r lat lon
...
