Plotting points on a Poincare Sphere

Posted 9 years ago

Hello,

I have a list of vector points: List={ {S1a, S2a, S2b}, ...,{S1z, S2z, S3z} }

I would like to trace these points on the surface of a sphere with coordinate axis S1, S2 and S3. Like in the picture below.

The mathematica-code of this picture can be found here: http://goo.gl/Qfs8ZW

The code uses ParametricPlot3D. So far I tried it by using ListPlot3D. Can anyone give me some help or advise?

Thank you very much,

Peter

Maybe you can try with

Graphics3D[Point[Transpose[{S1, S2, S3}]]]

Sorry in the moment you answered, I have edited my question. As you can see (now), I have already a list of all the vector points. All I have to do now, is to plot each of these coordinate points in a way showed in my picture above.

Ahh, now I see. Thanks.

I can do it this way

Graphics3D[Point[{{2, 3, 4}, {1, 4, 5}}]]

If I do this for all my points i think I should get what I want. How can I include the grey sphere?

Sphere[{0, 0, 0}]

A simple way is this:

Graphics3D[{Point[{{2, 3, 4}, {1, 4, 5}}], Sphere[]}]
