Sunburst

Summary

Sunburst is a sequential colormap from cmasher. Lightness rises monotonically from 0.00 to 1.00, hue sweeps 146° from rose to chartreuse, and order holds under all three colorblind simulations.

Yellow-orange sunburst sequential.

Perceptual profile (OKLCh)

• Lightness: 0.000 → 1.000 (range 1.000, min 0.000, max 1.000); monotonic; midpoint 0.543
• Chroma: min 0.000, max 0.202, mean 0.107
• Hue: 0.0° → 0.0° (span 146.0°), path monotonic-cw; quadrants: rose, red, orange, yellow, chartreuse
• Endpoint temperature: null → null
• Perceptual ΔE: total 133.8, mean/step 0.525, max step 0.924, smoothness 0.787, speed 0.525

Colorblind safety (ΔE under simulated CVD)

• Protanopia: ΔE total 112.4; preserves order: yes
• Deuteranopia: ΔE total 105.5; preserves order: yes
• Tritanopia: ΔE total 121.7; preserves order: yes
