StepOff.getLogUniformDecay(fieldType, times, chi0, dchi, tau1, tau2)[source]#

Return characteristic decay for a step-off waveform for a log-uniform distribution of time-relaxation constants.

The output of this function is the magnetization at each time for each cell, normalized by the inducing field.

Parameters:
fieldType{‘dhdt’, ‘dbdt’}

Field type.

timesnumpy.ndarray

Observation times. These times MUST be during the off-time.

chi0float

DC (zero-frequency) magnetic susceptibility for all cells

dchifloat

DC (zero-frequency) magnetic susceptibility attributed to VRM for all cells

tau1float

Lower-bound for log-uniform distribution of time-relaxation constants for all cells

tau2float

Upper-bound for log-uniform distribution of time-relaxation constants for all cells

Returns:
eta(n_times) numpy.ndarray

Characteristic decay evaluated at all specified times.
