Galactic and Gravitational Dynamics
## Installation
[![PyPI platforms][pypi-platforms]][pypi-link]
[![PyPI version][pypi-version]][pypi-link]```bash
pip install galax
```## Documentation
[![Documentation Status][rtd-badge]][rtd-link]
Coming soon. In the meantime, if you've used `gala`, then `galax` should be
familiar!## Quick example
Let's compute an orbit!
```python
import coordinax as cx
import galax.coordinates as gc
import galax.dynamics as gd
import galax.potential as gp
import jax.numpy as jnp
from unxt import Quantityw = gc.PhaseSpacePosition(
q=Quantity([8, 0, 0], "kpc"),
p=Quantity([0, 220, 0], "km/s"),
t=Quantity(0, "Myr"),
)pot = gp.MilkyWayPotential()
orbit = gd.evaluate_orbit(pot, w, Quantity(jnp.linspace(0, 1, 100), "Gyr"))
print(orbit)
# Orbit(
# q=,
# p=,
# t=Quantity['time'](Array([0., ..., 1000.], dtype=float64), unit='Myr'),
# potential=MilkyWayPotential(...)
# )orbit_sph = orbit.represent_as(cx.LonLatSphericalPosition)
print(orbit_sph)
# Orbit(
# q=,
# p=,
# t=Quantity['time'](Array([0., ..., 1000.], dtype=float64), unit='Myr'),
# potential=MilkyWayPotential(...})
# )

See the
[AUTHORS.rst](https://github.com/GalacticDynamics/galax/blob/main/AUTHORS.rst)
file for a complete list of contributors to the project.The [`GalacticDynamics/galax`](https://github.com/GalacticDynamics/galax)
maintainers would like to thank
[@Michael Anckaert](https://github.com/MichaelAnckaert) for transferring the
`galax` project domain on `PyPI` for use by this package. Without his generosity
this package would have had a worse name.[actions-badge]: https://github.com/GalacticDynamics/galax/workflows/CI/badge.svg
