velociraptor.particles package

Velociraptor particles interaction functions. These allow users to extract the particles belonging to, e.g. a single halo.

velociraptor.particles.load_groups(filename, catalogue: Optional[velociraptor.catalogue.catalogue.Catalogue] = None) → velociraptor.particles.particles.VelociraptorGroups[source]

Load the groups file, passed by its filename to this function. Passing the velociraptor catalogue to the catalogue argument allows for significantly more information to be extracted, and is highly recommended.
