The yt Astrophysical Analysis Extension

This is yt_astro_analysis, the yt extension package for astrophysical analysis. This is primarily machinery that used to be in yt’s analysis_modules. These were made into a separate package to allow yt to become less astro-specifc and to allow these modules to be developed on their own schedule.

Citing yt_astro_analysis

If you use the yt_astro_analysis package for your work, please cite the yt_astro_analysis entry on zenodo.org as well as the yt method paper. Feel free to use the text below in your publications:
