Detailed Description

The LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix class describes the material properties related to Lyman-alpha line transfer for a population of neutral hydrogen atoms, including support for polarization by scattering.

The spatial distributions for both the mass density and the temperature of the neutral hydrogen gas must be defined by the input model and are considered to be constant during the simulation. In this context, this material mix offers a configuration property to specify a default gas temperature that is used by geometric media as a fixed temperature across the spatial domain. Imported media offer an importTemperature flag that allows defining a different gas temperature for each particle or cell. In this case, the default dust temperature configured for the material mix is ignored.

This material mix also offers a configuration property to enable or disable support for polarization. It returns one of the Lya or LyaPolarization scattering modes depending on the configured value for this property. The dust-oriented functions for retrieving material properties are not used for the Lyman-alpha-specific aspects of the photon cycle, but some of them are used during setup, for example to normalize the mass of a geometric medium component based on optical depth. To this end, the scattering cross section is calculated using the configured default temperature and the absorption cross section is zero.

This item type is displayed only if the Boolean expression "Lya" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

When an item of this type is used, the names provided by the conditional value expression "GasMix" are inserted into the name sets used for evaluating Boolean expressions.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix()

LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix ( )
inlineprotected

Default constructor for concrete Item subclass LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix : "neutral hydrogen for Lyman-alpha line transfer" .

Member Function Documentation

◆ defaultTemperature()

LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::defaultTemperature ( ) const
inline

This function returns the value of the discoverable double property defaultTemperature : "the default temperature of the neutral hydrogen gas" .

This property represents a physical quantity of type "temperature" .

The minimum value for this property is "[3" .

The maximum value for this property is "1e9]" .

The default value for this property is given by the conditional value expression "1e4" .

This property is displayed only if the Boolean expression "Level2" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

◆ hasExtraSpecificState()

bool LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::hasExtraSpecificState ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns true, indicating that the cross sections returned by this material mix depend on the values of specific state variables other than the number density, in this case the temperature.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ hasPolarizedScattering()

bool LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::hasPolarizedScattering ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the value of the includePolarization flag, indicating whether the material mix supports polarization during scattering events or not.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ hasResonantScattering()

bool LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::hasResonantScattering ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns true, indicating that scattering for the material mix is resonant.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ hasScatteringDispersion()

bool LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::hasScatteringDispersion ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns true, indicating that a scattering interaction for this material mix may (and usually does) adjust the wavelength of the interacting photon packet.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ includePolarization()

LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::includePolarization ( ) const
inline

This function returns the value of the discoverable Boolean property includePolarization : "include support for polarization" .

The default value for this property is given by the conditional value expression "false" .

This property is displayed only if the Boolean expression "Level2" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

◆ indicativeTemperature()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::indicativeTemperature ( const MaterialState state,
const Array Jv 
) const
overridevirtual

This function returns an indicative temperature of the material mix when it would be embedded in a given radiation field. The implementation in this class ignores the radiation field and returns the temperature stored in the specific state for the relevant spatial cell and medium component. Because the hydrogen temperature is not calculated self-consistently in our treatment, this value corresponds to the temperature defined by the input model at the start of the simulation.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ initializeSpecificState()

void LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::initializeSpecificState ( MaterialState state,
double  metallicity,
double  temperature,
const Array params 
) const
overridevirtual

This function initializes the specific state variables requested by this fragmented dust mix through the specificStateVariableInfo() function except for the number density. For the Lyman-alpha material mix, the function initializes the temperature to the specified imported temperature, or if this is not available, to the user-configured default temperature for this material mix. The metallicity and custom parameter arguments are ignored.

Reimplemented from MaterialMix.

◆ mass()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::mass ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the mass of neutral hydrogen atom.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ materialType()

MaterialType LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::materialType ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the fundamental material type represented by this material mix, which is MaterialType::Gas.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ opacityAbs()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::opacityAbs ( double  lambda,
const MaterialState state,
const PhotonPacket pp 
) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the absorption opacity \(k^\text{abs}=n\varsigma^\text{abs}\), which is trivially zero for the Lyman-alpha material mix.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ opacityExt()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::opacityExt ( double  lambda,
const MaterialState state,
const PhotonPacket pp 
) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the extinction opacity \(k^\text{ext}=k^\text{abs}+k^\text{sca}\) for the given wavelength and material state. The photon properties are not used. For the Lyman-alpha material mix, the extinction opacity equals the scattering opacity.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ opacitySca()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::opacitySca ( double  lambda,
const MaterialState state,
const PhotonPacket pp 
) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the scattering opacity \(k^\text{sca}=n\varsigma^\text{sca}\) for the given wavelength and material state. The photon properties are not used.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ peeloffScattering()

void LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::peeloffScattering ( double &  I,
double &  Q,
double &  U,
double &  V,
double &  lambda,
Direction  bfkobs,
Direction  bfky,
const MaterialState state,
const PhotonPacket pp 
) const
overridevirtual

This function calculates the contribution of the medium component associated with this material mix to the peel-off photon luminosity, polarization state, and wavelength shift, for the given wavelength, geometry, material state, and photon properties. The contributions to the Stokes vector components are stored in the I, Q, U, V arguments, which are guaranteed to be initialized to zero by the caller, and the adjusted wavelength is stored in the lambda argument.

For the Lyman-alpha material mix, the function implements resonant scattering without or with support for polarization depending on the user-configured includePolarization property.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ performScattering()

void LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::performScattering ( double  lambda,
const MaterialState state,
PhotonPacket pp 
) const
overridevirtual

This function performs a scattering event on the specified photon packet in the spatial cell and medium component represented by the specified material state and the receiving material mix. For the Lyman-alpha material mix, the function implements resonant scattering without or with support for polarization depending on the user-configured includePolarization property.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ sectionAbs()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::sectionAbs ( double  lambda) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the Lyman-alpha absorption cross section per hydrogen atom \(\varsigma^\text{abs}_\alpha(\lambda, T_\text{def})\) which is trivially zero for all wavelengths and temperatures.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ sectionExt()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::sectionExt ( double  lambda) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the total Lyman-alpha extinction cross section per hydrogen atom \(\varsigma^\text{ext}_\alpha(\lambda, T_\text{def})\) at the given wavelength and using the default gas temperature configured for this material mix. The extinction cross section is identical to the scattering cross section because the absorption cross section is zero.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ sectionSca()

double LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::sectionSca ( double  lambda) const
overridevirtual

This function returns the Lyman-alpha scattering cross section per hydrogen atom \(\varsigma^\text{sca}_\alpha(\lambda, T_\text{def})\) at the given wavelength and using the default gas temperature configured for this material mix.

Implements MaterialMix.

◆ setupSelfBefore()

void LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::setupSelfBefore ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

This function initializes the DipolePhaseFunction instance held by this class.

Reimplemented from SimulationItem.

◆ specificStateVariableInfo()

vector< StateVariable > LyaNeutralHydrogenGasMix::specificStateVariableInfo ( ) const
overridevirtual

This function returns a list of StateVariable objects describing the specific state variables used by the receiving material mix. See the description of the MaterialMix::specificStateVariableInfo() function for more information.

The Lyman-alpha material mix requires a gas temperature in addition to the standard number density, so this function returns a list containing these two items.

Implements MaterialMix.
