subplot_galaxy_mass_profiles(galaxy, grid, convergence=False, potential=False, deflections_y=False, deflections_x=False, output_path=None, output_format=None, colormap='default', use_log10=False)#

Create subplots showing lensing quantities for every mass profile in a galaxy.

One figure is produced per requested quantity, each containing one panel per MassProfile attached to galaxy. Only the quantities whose corresponding flag is True are plotted; if none are requested, or if the galaxy has no mass profiles, the function returns without producing output.

Parameters:

  • galaxy (Galaxy) – The galaxy whose mass profiles are to be plotted.

  • grid (aa.type.Grid2DLike) – The grid on which lensing quantities are evaluated.

  • convergence (bool) – Plot the convergence map of each mass profile.

  • potential (bool) – Plot the gravitational potential map of each mass profile.

  • deflections_y (bool) – Plot the y-component of the deflection-angle map.

  • deflections_x (bool) – Plot the x-component of the deflection-angle map.

  • output_path (str or None) – Directory in which to save figures. 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 plotted values.
