diskpy.ICgen.sigprofiles.powerlaw.powerlaw(settings, T=None)[source]

Generates a surface density profile according to a powerlaw sigma ~ 1/r with a smooth interior cutoff and smooth exterior exponential cutoff.

ARGUMENTS

settings : IC settings
settings like those contained in an IC object (see ICgen_settings.py)
T : callable function
Function that returns temperature of the disk as a function of radius IF none, a powerlaw temperature is assumed

RETURNS

R : SimArray
Radii at which sigma is calculated
sigma : SimArray
Surface density profile as a function of R
