snapbinary - analyze binaries in a snapshot

For a given pair of stars, some statistics is computed of what kind of binary it is (ignoring any other stars in the neighborhood). For a bound pair the semi-major axis, period and eccentricity will be given.

The program snapstat(1NEMO) with option debug=1 will report the progression of nearest neighbors, which are good candidates for binaries.

Parameters

The following parameters are recognized in any order if the keyword is also given:

in=: input file name [???]
i1=: First star, where 0 is the first star in the snapshot. A nemoinp(1NEMO) list (e.g. 0:100) can also be given. [0]
i2=: Second star. A nemoinp(1NEMO) list (e.g. 0:100) can also be given, but only stars greater than i1= are used. [1]
bound=t|f: If given, only bound stars are listed. [t]
out=: Optional out with strongest bound pair sink’d.

Examples

In this given snapshot snapstat(1NEMO) is used to report close pairs (but note it will only report pairs closer than the previous one):
