Calculations and creation of figures to analyse accretion disk

The following examples show how you can use PLONS to calculate estimates of the disk radius, scale height and mass, and to create graphs and figures for accretion disks around a companion sink particle.

Contents:

• Estimate disk scale height, disk radius, and disk mass using plons
• Construct plots of the scale height, radius and mass estimate of an accretion disk using plons
• Construct plots of density distribution, and the radial and tangential velocity profile within and around the disk, using Plons
• Construct plots of the tangential velocity distribution in function of radius within the disk, and compare to Keplerian velocity distribution
