Welcome to SPHGR’s documentation!¶
This is a multi-purpose data reduction suite designed to read and then process GADGET, TIPSY, or HDF5 binary outputs from GADGET. Then general idea is to be a one-stop-shop to simulation analysis and data access. The resulting data is saved to the disk in distinct object files which allows for easy examination/plotting. The general operation of the code looks something like this:
- run galaxy finder
- run DM halo finder
- run membersearch:
- assign gas & star particles to halos
- assign DM particles to halos
- calculate galaxy global properties
- assign galaxies to DM halos
- determine central/satellite
- find most-massive progenitors of each galaxy
- run LOSER to determine magnitudes
