diskfit implements procedures for fitting non-axisymmetries in either kinematic or photometric data, as first described in Spekkens & Sellwood (2007) for velocity fields and Reese et al. (2007, SS07) for images. DiskFit supercedes velfit 2.0 in that it implements a refined version of that code to fit kinematics, and corresponds to the first public release of the image fitting code described in R07. DiskFit improves upon the functionality of velfit described in SS07 and Sellwood & Zanmar Sanches (2010) as well as that for image fitting described in R07, by carrying out an optional seeing correction for both kinematic and photometric fits.
Radial (m=0) flow can be fitted by setting flags(4) , whereas bisymmetric (m=2) or lobsided (m=1) flow with flags(5) (see flags= below). The code is usually not well converging when fitting both. For more details and a full explanation of the parameters, Spekkens and Sellwood (2007ApJ...664..204S) and the Users Guide on the DISKFIT website.
The current frontend is under development, the only reliably way to run the examples is via the inp= keyword.
ex 1a: rundiskfit inp=EXAMPLE/PHOT/phot_disk.inp ex 1b: rundiskfit inp=EXAMPLE/PHOT/phot_full.inp ex 2a: rundiskfit inp=EXAMPLE/VELS/FITS/velsf_disk.inp ex 2b: rundiskfit inp=EXAMPLE/VELS/FITS/velsf_bi.inp ex 3 : rundiskfit inp=EXAMPLE/VELS/TEXT/velst_err.inp
Note you have to run them from a directory where EXAMPLE is a subdirectory.
