Dispersion (`plasmapy.dispersion`)

The dispersion subpackage contains functionality associated with plasma dispersion relations, including numerical solvers and analytical solutions.

Attention

This functionality is under development. Backward incompatible changes might occur in future releases.

Sub-Packages & Modules

`analytical`	The `analytical` subpackage contains functionality associated with analytical dispersion solutions.
`dispersion_functions`	Module containing functionality focused on the plasma dispersion function \(Z(ζ)\).
`numerical`	The `numerical` subpackage contains functionality associated with numerical dispersion solvers.

Functions

`plasma_dispersion_func`(zeta)	Calculate the plasma dispersion function.
`plasma_dispersion_func_deriv`(zeta)	Calculate the derivative of the plasma dispersion function.
