angle_factor#

empymod.kernel.angle_factor(angle, ab, msrc, mrec)[source]#

Return the angle-dependent factor.

The whole calculation in the wavenumber domain is only a function of the distance between the source and the receiver, it is independent of the angel. The angle-dependency is this factor, which can be applied to the corresponding parts in the wavenumber or in the frequency domain.

The angle_factor corresponds to the sine and cosine-functions in Eqs 105-107, 111-116, 119-121, 123-128.

This function is called from one of the Hankel functions in empymod.transform. Consult the modelling routines in empymod.model for a description of the input and output parameters.
