vice.multizone.name¶
Type : str
Default : “multizonemodel”
The name of the simulation. The output will be stored in a directory
under this name with the extension “.vice”. This can also be of the
form ./path/to/directory/name
and the output will be stored there.
Tip
Users need not interact with any of the output files. The
multioutput
object is designed to read in all of the results
automatically.
Tip
By forcing a “.vice” extension on the output directory, users can
run <command> \*.vice
in a terminal to run commands over all
VICE outputs in a given directory.
Note
The outputs of this class contain the output from each individual
zone in their respective “.vice” directories as well as the
abundances, age information, and initial and final zone numbers
of all star particles in an ascii file named “tracers.out”. Like
the “history.out” and “mdf.out” files associated with the
singlezone
object, this allows this information to be analyzed
in languages other than python with ease.

Example Code¶
>>> import vice
>>> mz = vice.multizone(name = "example")
>>> mz.name = "another_name"
