List of Variables

The table below contains a list of variables that are used in the code and that are available for plotting / analysis.

  • Name : Name of the variable as it appears in the code. Pass a string with this name to any of the plotting functions to plot, or to the relevant .compute() method to return the calculated quantity.

  • Label : TeX label for the variable.

  • Units : Physical units for the variable.

  • Description : Description of the variable.

  • Aliases : Alternative names of the variable that are equivalent to the primary name.

  • kwargs : Optional keyword arguments that can be supplied when computing the variable. See the bottom of this page for detailed descriptions and default values of each argument. The only keyword argument that is valid for all variables is ‘basis’ (see explanation below).

All vector quantities are computed in toroidal coordinates \((R,\phi,Z)\) by default. The keyword argument basis='xyz' can be used to convert the variables into Cartesian coordinates \((X,Y,Z)\). basis must be one of {'rpz', 'xyz'}.
