Input

class pfsspy.Input(br, nr, rss)

Bases: object

Input to PFSS modelling.

Parameters
  • br (sunpy.map.GenericMap) – Boundary condition of radial magnetic field at the inner surface. Note that the data must have a cylindrical equal area projection.

  • nr (int) – Number of cells in the radial direction to calculate the PFSS solution on.

  • rss (float) – Radius of the source surface, as a fraction of the solar radius.

Notes

The input must be on a regularly spaced grid in \(\phi\) and \(s = \cos (\theta)\). See pfsspy.grid for more information on the coordinate system.
