pywrap for axion-fermion stars

Example:

python3 wrapper.py par/axion_fa_exp_-1d7.par fa-1.7 &

Compile and run Shoot + Solve using the input written in the parfile axion_fa_exp_-1d7.par. Create the file log_wrappy_${localtime}.py where info on the run are printed. The output is saved in the directory ./out/fa-1.7. If the directory already exists, the program stops. If axion-star (i.e. rho0c=0), then create also a M(phic) plot: ./out/fa-1.7/existence_plot.png.

For compiling the level-curver script, go in mass_curves/and then execute:

ln -s Examples/AnalyticalExample.cpp
g++ -o example AnalyticalExample.cpp LevelCurves.cpp
./example

This will produce a file out_example.txt that contains a level curve. To plot the result, you can open gnuplot and use

plot 'out_example.txt' u 2:1 i 1 w l

You can check the result against the output of the Matlab script LevelCurves.m:

x_init          = -0.6;
y_init          = -0.30103;
start_direction = 2;
ds              = 0.01;
maxpoints       = 100;
onlySquares     = 0;
saveGIF         = 0;
