pyvista.examples.downloads.download_cloud_dark_matter_dense#

download_cloud_dark_matter_dense(load=True)[source]#

Download a particles from a simulated dark matter halo.

This dataset contains 2,062,256 particles.

Parameters:

loadbool, default: True: Load the dataset after downloading it when True. Set this to False and only the filename will be returned.

Returns:

pyvista.PointSet | str: DataSet or filename depending on load.

Examples

Download the dark matter cloud and display its representation.

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from pyvista import examples
>>> pc = examples.download_cloud_dark_matter_dense()
>>> pc
PointSet (...)
  N Cells:    0
  N Points:   2062256
  X Bounds:   7.462e+01, 7.863e+01
