PSD

PSDIntegrator, ExponentialPSD, GammaPSD, UnnormalizedGammaPSD, BinnedPSD.

rustmatrix.psd

Radar observables

refl, Zdr, Kdp, rho_hv, delta_hv, Ai, ldr.

rustmatrix.radar

Scatter helpers

Cross sections, amplitude / phase matrices, asymmetry parameter.

rustmatrix.scatter

HydroMix

Combine multiple species into one Scatterer-shaped object.

rustmatrix.hd_mix

Spectra

SpectralIntegrator, fall-speed presets, turbulence kernels.

rustmatrix.spectra

Beam × scene

Explicit beam-pattern × scene integration for non-uniform beams.

rustmatrix.spectra.beam

Refractive index

Tabulated water / ice indices; Maxwell-Garnett / Bruggeman mixing.

rustmatrix.refractive

tmatrix_aux

Radar-band wavelengths, \(|K_w|^2\), drop-shape relations, geometries.

rustmatrix.tmatrix_aux

Orientation

Orientation-averaging strategies and canting-angle PDFs.

rustmatrix.orientation

Quadrature

Gautschi quadrature against arbitrary weights.

rustmatrix.quadrature

The Rust crate that backs the Python extension is documented separately on docs.rs; see Rust API.
