Welcome to radiotools’s documentation!

default coordinate system and units

The radiotools package uses the ‘Auger’ coordinate system: A zenith angle of 0 deg indicated the zenith and a zenith angle of 90 deg points towards the horizon. The azimuth angle counts from East counterclockwise, e.g., phi = 270 deg equals South.

Unless explicitly specified in a function, the following default units are used:
  • length: meter
  • time: second
  • energy: eV
  • angle: radian
  • mass: grams
