Light curve of an occulted surface.

Parameters:

  • surface (Surface) – Surface object

  • r (float or None) – radius of the occulting body, relative to the current map body

  • x (float or None) – x coordinate of the occulting body relative to the surface center. By default (None) 0.0

  • y (float or None) – y coordinate of the occulting body relative to the surface center. By default (None) 0.0

  • z (float or None) – z coordinate of the occulting body relative to the surface center. By default (None) 0.0

  • theta (float) – rotation angle of the map, in radians. By default 0.0

  • order (int) – order of the P integral numerical approximation. By default 20

  • higher_precision (bool) – whether to compute change of basis matrix as hight precision. By default False (only used to testing).

Returns:
