StokesVector

class pyarts.arts.StokesVector

A stokes vector

This type is related to PropagationMatrix

The data type is Tensor4 in units of [1/m]

The dimensionality is kept as:

Number of frequencies as Index (usually from f_grid) Number of zenith angles as Index Number of azimuth angles as Index The Stokes dimension as Index (usually from stokes_dim)

This is often used to compute the source emission with the help of a PropagationMatrix
