distribution – Figures from the electron distribution in the shower

class penelopetools.api.figure.shower2010.distribution.Trajectories2D(result, projection, exits=[3, 1, 2], **kwargs)

Bases: penelopetools.api.figure._Figure

Draws a two dimensional projection of the electron trajectories recorded in a shower. The input result are from the trajectories result (Trajectories).

The projecting plane is specified using one out of the three constants:

• XY plane (PROJECTION_XY)
• YZ plane (PROJECTION_YZ)
• XZ plane (PROJECTION_XZ)

The user can also decided whether to draw the backscatter, absorbed and/or transmitted electrons. This is specified by the argument exit which is a list of types of electrons to include in the figure. The type of electrons are specified using the following constants:

• absorbed (EXIT_ABSORBED)
• backscattered (EXIT_BACKSCATTERED)
• transmitted (EXIT_TRANSMITTED)

Parameters:

• result (Trajectories) – electron trajectories result
• projection – projecting plane, either PROJECTION_XY, PROJECTION_YZ or PROJECTION_XZ
• exits (list) – type of electrons to draw in the figure
