_magnetosonicSpeed()

__host__ __device__ Real mhd::utils::internal::_magnetosonicSpeed ( Real const &  density, Real const &  gasPressure, Real const &  magneticX, Real const &  magneticY, Real const &  magneticZ, Real const &  gamma, Real const &  waveChoice  )

inline

Compute the fast or slow magnetosonic wave speeds.

Parameters

density	The density
gasPressure	The gas pressure
magneticX	Magnetic field in the x-direction
magneticY	Magnetic field in the y-direction
magneticZ	Magnetic field in the z-direction
gamma	The adiabatic index
waveChoice	Which speed to compute. If +1 then compute the speed of the fast magnetosonic wave, if -1 then the speed of the slow magnetosonic wave

Returns

Real The speed of the fast or slow magnetosonic wave
