yt.analysis_modules.halo_finding.halo_objects.LoadHaloes

class yt.analysis_modules.halo_finding.halo_objects.LoadHaloes(ds, basename)[source]

Load the full halo data into memory.

This function takes the output of GenericHaloFinder.dump and re-establishes the list of halos in memory. This enables the full set of halo analysis features without running the halo finder again. To be precise, the particle data for each halo is only read in when necessary, so examining a single halo will not require as much memory as is required for halo finding.

Parameters:

basename : String

The base name of the files that will be read in. This should match what was used when GenericHaloFinder.dump was called. Default = “HopAnalysis”.

Examples

>>> ds = load("data0005")
>>> halos = LoadHaloes(ds, "HopAnalysis")
