PlasmaCalcs.quantities.bases

File Purpose: base & simple derived quantities.

The way to load BASE_QUANTS should be defined in hookups,

as they will depend on the kind of input data being loaded.

The way to load SIMPLE_DERIVED_QUANTS is defined in this file,

as they depend only on BASE_QUANTS.

However, they are decently likely to be overwritten, depending on kind of input.

E.g. Ebysus saves ‘r’ and ‘m’, not ‘n’.

Since ‘n’ is a base quant, EbysusCalculator needs to overwrite it anyways,

however it will use something like n = r / m, rather than n = number density from file.

Meanwhile, EbysusCalculator reads ‘r’ from file, rather than r = n * m.

Other parts of PlasmaCalcs may assume it is possible to load BASE_QUANTS and SIMPLE_DERIVED_QUANTS.

PlasmaCalcs will fail with LoadingNotImplementedError when the way to load the quant

hasn’t been defined yet, for the kind of input data being loaded.
