subplot_galaxy_images(galaxies, grid, output_path=None, output_format=None, colormap='default', use_log10=False, tangential_critical_curves=None, radial_critical_curves=None, title_prefix=None)[source]#

Create a subplot showing the individual image of each galaxy.

One panel is drawn per galaxy. This is useful for inspecting which galaxy contributes how much light when multiple galaxies are present in a scene.

Parameters:

  • galaxies (sequence of Galaxy) – The galaxies whose images are to be plotted. Must not contain any LightProfileLinear profiles.

  • grid (aa.type.Grid1D2DLike) – The grid on which each galaxy image is evaluated.

  • output_path (str or None) – Directory in which to save the figure. None → plt.show().

  • output_format (str) – File format, e.g. "png".

  • colormap (str) – Matplotlib colormap name, or "default".

  • use_log10 (bool) – Apply a log₁₀ stretch to the image values.

  • tangential_critical_curves (list or None) – Reserved for future overlay support (currently unused).

  • radial_critical_curves (list or None) – Reserved for future overlay support (currently unused).
