Return most bound particle indexes when running on the fly in Swift #100

Closed jchelly closed 4 years ago

jchelly commented 4 years ago

@pelahi - please don't merge this just yet! It requires corresponding changes in Swift and it breaks the existing Swift/VR interface.

This modifies the Swift interface so that Swift can request that Velociraptor return the indexes of the most bound particles in the halos it finds. On the Swift side, we can then use that information to output the particles we need for 'orphan' galaxies in semi-analytic models (i.e. galaxies which are no longer associated with a resolved halo.)

The corresponding merge request on the Swift side is at https://gitlab.cosma.dur.ac.uk/swift/swiftsim/merge_requests/1131.
