§Lebedev–Laikov quadrature

Approximates surface integrals over the sphere as:

∫ f(Ω) dΩ = ∫ f(θ, φ) sin(θ) dθ dφ ≈ 4 π ∑ₖ wₖ f(xₖ, yₖ, zₖ)

Note that the weights are normalized such that they sum to one.

Constants§

NS
The list of numbers of nodes supported by this quadrature scheme.

Functions§

ld
Populate the given slices with the Lebedev–Laikov grid points (x, y, and z) and weights w. All four slices must have the same length, equal to the number of nodes requested. Node that only certain number of nodes are supported (see NS).
ld_vecs
Same as ld but returns the tables as vectors.
