virtual double visibility_amplitude (datum_visibility_amplitude &d, double acc)
 Returns visibility ampitudes in Jy computed from the image given a datum_visibility_amplitude object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.
 
virtual size_t size () const
 A user-supplied function that returns the number of the parameters the model expects.
 
virtual std::string model_tag () const
 Return a string that contains a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features.

virtual void generate_model (std::vector< double > parameters)
 A one-time generate function that permits model construction prior to calling the visibility_amplitude, closure_phase, etc. for each datum. Takes a vector of parameters.
 
virtual void generate_complex_visibilities ()
 A one-time generate function that will generate the complex visibilities and store them. This must be called after generate_model has been called.
 
virtual std::complex< double > visibility (datum_visibility &d, double accuracy)
 Returns complex visibility in Jy computed from the image given a datum_visibility_amplitude object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.
 
virtual double closure_phase (datum_closure_phase &d, double accuracy)
 Returns closure phase in degrees computed from the image given a datum_closure_phase object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.
 
virtual double closure_amplitude (datum_closure_amplitude &d, double accuracy)
 Returns closure amplitude computed from the image given a datum_closure_phase object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.

void get_image (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &alpha, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &beta, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &I) const
 Provides direct access to the constructed image. Sets a 2D grid of angles (alpha, beta) in radians and intensities in Jy per steradian.
 
void get_visibilities (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &u, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &v, std::vector< std::vector< std::complex< double > > > &V) const
 Provides direct access to the complex visibilities. Sets a 2D grid of baselines (u,v) in lambda, and visibilites in Jy.
 
void get_visibility_amplitudes (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &u, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &v, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &V) const
 Provides direct access to the visibility amplitudes. Sets a 2D grid of baselines (u,v) in lambda, and visibilites in Jy.
 
void use_spline_interp (bool use_spline)
 Provides ability to use bicubic spline interpolator (true) instead of regular bicubic. Code defaults to false.
 
virtual void set_mpi_communicator (MPI_Comm comm)
 Defines a set of processors provided to the model for parallel computation via an MPI communicator. Only facilates code parallelization if the model computation is parallelized via MPI.
 
void write_model_tag_file (std::string tagfilename="model_image.tag") const
 Write a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features. This calls the overloaded version with the outstream, which is the only function that need be rewritten in child classes.
 
virtual void write_model_tag_file (std::ofstream &tagout) const
 Write a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features. For most child classes, the default implementation is suffcient. However, should that not be the case, this is the only function that need be rewritten in child classes.

Detailed Description

The image is computed by the external radiative transfer code ASTRORAY.

Parameter list:
parameters[0] ... Density normalization/scale inside ASTRORAY.
parameters[1] ... Inclination angle inside ASTRORAY in radians.
parameters[2] ... Isothermal electron temperature assumed in the jet/funnel region where ideal MHD is not to be trusted.
parameters[3] ... Azimuthal viewing angle inside ASTRORAY.

Generates and returns rectalinear grid of intensities from an image model generated by the external radiative transfer code ASTRORAY in Jy/str located at pixels centered on angular positions alpha and beta, both specified in radians and aligned with a fiducial direction. Note that the parameter vector has had the position removed.

Implements model_image.
