Parameters:

  • ray_path (~pyarts3.arts.ArrayOfPropagationPathPoint, optional) – A list path points making up a propagation path. Defaults to self.ray_path. [OUT]

  • atm_field (~pyarts3.arts.AtmField, optional) – An atmospheric field in ARTS, this is the main atmospheric data structure in ARTS. Defaults to self.atm_field. [IN]

  • surf_field (~pyarts3.arts.SurfaceField, optional) – The surface field. Defaults to self.surf_field. [IN]

  • pos (Vector3) – The start position. [IN]

  • los (Vector2) – The start line-of-sight. [IN]

  • as_sensor (~pyarts3.arts.Index, optional) – Whether or not the position is the sensor position or the observer position. Defaults to 1 [IN]
