Detailed Description

ProbeFormBridge is a helper class that provides a bridge between Probe and Form instances for form-assisted probes. The overall design objectives are described below. Refer to the documentation of the respective classes for more details.

Probes and forms

The idea is to allow combining two orthogonal concepts in an arbitrary fashion. The quantity being probed is specified by a Probe subclass, while the manner in which this quantity is being probed is specified by a Form subclass. Each Probe instance of this type is configured with a single Form instance.

This design does not apply to all probes. It is intended for probing physical quantities that are defined as a scalar, vector or compound field over the spatial domain of the simulation. This includes two categories:

• Spatial grid probes (inheriting the SpatialGridFormProbe class) handle quantities discretized over the simulation's spatial grid, including the radiation field and information stored in the medium state such as density, temperature, metallicity, velocity and custom variables. Because the quantities in this category are stored per spatial cell, they can all be probed by the same generic method.
• Input model probes (inheriting the InputModelFormProbe class) handle quantities defined by the input model, provided the relevant data is retained in memory by the simulation, and provided methods exist (and are implemented) to extract the information required for probing. In practice, this can be achieved for imported components, where the spatial distribution of the source or medium is defined through a set of particles or cells. Because these quantities are probed directly from the original (imported) data structures, there are no (additional) grid effects.

Forms describe how a given quantity should be probed. Generic forms (inheriting the GenericForm class) can be associated with any probe, including both spatial grid and input model probes. Examples include planar and linear cuts through the spatial domain, sampling at a user-specified list of positions, and parallel or all-sky projections. Spatial grid forms (inheriting the SpatialGridForm class) rely on the fact that the probed quantity is discretized on the simulation's spatial grid, and thus can be associated only with spatial grid probes. The prime example is the per-cell form.

The probe-form bridge

As can be deduced from the description above, the various types of probes and forms offer or require different types of primitives for retrieving probed quantity values. The ProbeFormBridge class provides a bridge between these differing capabilities and requirements. When a probe wants to output a file, it constructs a bridge instance and calls one of the bridge's writeQuantity() functions, passing it the appropriate information and local callback functions for retrieving probed quantity values on request. The bridge in turn calls the form's writeQuantity(bridge) function. Each Form subclass offers its own implementation of this function depending on the form's type of output. The form can get all required information through the bridge, including probed quantity values. The bridge passes the latter requests to the probe's call back functions, translating between request types as needed. For example, in the case of a spatial grid probe, a request by the form for a value at a given position is translated to a request for a value in the cell containing the position.

One aspect that needs special care is the conversion from internal units (always SI) to output units (defined by the unit system configured by the user). For each probe-form combination, the bridge handles two different quantity types: the 'straight' quantity, probed at a given position, and the 'projected' quantity, probed along a given path. The projected quantity can be averaged or accumulated over the path. In the first case, the project and straight quantities have the same units; in the second case they don't.

The bridge always supplies output units to the form, simplifying the implementation of a Form subclass. On the probe side, things are more complicated. Probes that handle scalar or vector quantities must specify the type of quantity to the bridge and supply any quantity values in internal units. The bridge will take care of the unit conversions. On the other hand, probes handling compound quantities must always convert quantity values to output units before supplying them to the bridge. This is so because the conversion factor may differ between components in a complicated way (for example, spectral quantities at different wavelengths).

There are several variations of the writeQuantity() function tailored to scalar, vector and compound quantities, and catering to spatial grid or input model probes. Because these functions often expect the same arguments in different combinations, all arguments are described here.

• fileid, projectedFileid: a string identifying the output file for the quantity being probed, straight and projected, among the possibly multiple files produced by this probe (e.g. "v", "1_rho", or "dust_T").
• quantity, projectedQuantity: the quantity names (as defined in the SKIRT unit system) of the quantity being probed, straight and projected. These strings differ if the projected quantity is accumulated over distance and they are equal if the projected quantity is a weighted average. If these arguments are specified, the bridge performs all unit conversions.
• unit, projectedUnit: the unit strings (as defined in the SKIRT unit system) of the quantity being probed, straight and projected. If these arguments are specified, the bridge does not perform any unit conversions and the probe is expected to provide values in output units.
• projectedUnitFactor: an additional conversion factor from straight to projected quantities, to be provided only in cases where this factor cannot be automatically determined.
• description, projectedDescription: the user-oriented descriptions corresponding to the straight and projected quantities. These strings may differ even if the quantity names or unit strings are the same, for example, to indicate the weighting mechanism.
• axis: for compound values, the values on the compound axis (e.g., wavelengths), in output units.
• axisUnit: for compound values, the unit string for the compound axis values.
• addColumnDefinitions: the callback function that will be called to add the appropriate column definitions if the form creates a text column output file.
• valueInCell: the callback function that will be used to retrieve values of the quantity being probed in a spatial cell with given index. Used for spatial grid probes.
• weightInCell: the callback function that will be used to retrieve the weight of the quantity being probed in a spatial cell with given index, in case averaging is required. Used for spatial grid probes.
• valueAtPosition: the callback function that will be used to retrieve values of the quantity being probed at the specified position. Used for input model probes.
• valueAlongPath: the callback function that will be used to retrieve values of the quantity being probed along the path starting at the specified position in the specified direction. Used for input model probes.
• snapshots: a list of pointers to the snapshots representing the set of imported source or medium components being probed. Used for input model probes that probe imported source or medium components.
• valueInEntity: the callback function that will be used to retrieve values of the quantity being probed in a snapshot entity with given index. Used for input model probes that probe an imported source or medium component.
• weightInEntity: the callback function that will be used to retrieve the weight of the quantity being probed in a snapshot entity with given index, in case averaging is required. Used for input model probes that probe an imported source or medium component.

valuesAlongPath()

void ProbeFormBridge::valuesAlongPath	(	Position	bfr,
		Direction	bfk,
		Array &	values
	)		const

This function retrieves the values (in output units) of the quantity being probed along the path starting at the specified position in the specified direction. The provided array must have numValues elements that will be overwritten by this function.

This function should be called only from within the writeQuantity() function of a generic form. Its operation depends on the type of the associated probe, the quantity properties set by the most recent call to writeQuantity(), and the callbacks set by the writeQuantity() function of this bridge that triggered the current file output.

For an input model probe, the function simply invokes the valuesAlongPath callback. For a spatial grid probe, the function accesses the simulation's spatial grid to determine the list of path segments (traversing each cell) corresponding to the specified path, and it calls the valuesInCell callback for each cell in the list. If the straight and projected quantity names differ, the function calculates the accumulated quantity $\sum _m{Q}_m\mathrm{\Delta }{s}_m$. If the quantity names are the same, it calculates the weighted average $\sum _m{Q}_m{w}_m\mathrm{\Delta }{s}_m/\sum _m{w}_m\mathrm{\Delta }{s}_m$, where the weights are retrieved by calling the weightInCell callback for each cell.

valuesAtPosition()

void ProbeFormBridge::valuesAtPosition	(	Position	bfr,
		Array &	values
	)		const

This function retrieves the values (in output units) of the quantity being probed at the specified position. The provided array must have numValues elements that will be overwritten by this function.

This function should be called only from within the writeQuantity() function of a generic form. Depending on the type of the associated probe, it operates by invoking either the valuesAtPosition or valuesInCell callback set by the writeQuantity() function of this bridge that triggered the current file output. In the latter case, the function accesses the simulation's spatial grid to retrieve the index of the cell containing the specified position.

valuesInCell()

void ProbeFormBridge::valuesInCell	(	int	m,
		Array &	values
