galaxy_rotation_profile(file='rot_milki2018_14.dat')[source]#

Open file for the rotation profile of the object. There is rot_milki2018_14.dat, which is taken from Bhattacharjee et al. (2014) and Eilers et al. (2018), and there is rot_curve.dat, for which I cannot find a reference. Christoph’s latest version of KOSMA-tau-3D seemed to be using the former data file, but I will test both. The latter file has higher rotational velocities, though it seems somewhat artificially created (multiple entries with the same value).
