Diag.autogen

Diag

Diag.write_atomicdata

Choose whether to write the atomic data that is being used to an output file.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

File: setup_domains.c

Diag.adjust_grid

Choose whether or not you would like to adjust the scale length for the logarithmic grid. Advanced command.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Wind.number_of_components`: Greater than 0. Once per domain.

File: setup_domains.c

Diag.extra

Decide whether or not to use extra diagnostics in advanced mode. If set, this triggers a many extra questions that allow one to investigate things such as photon cell statistics, the velocity gradients in cells and the resonant scatters in the wind

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

File: python.c

Diag.save_cell_statistics

Choose whether to save the statistics for a selection of save_cell_statistics. If yes, it looks for a file called "diag_cells.dat" which contains the cells to track, and saves the photon details (weights, frequencies) for those that interact in the cell. Useful for checking the detailed MC radiation field in a cell.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.make_ioncycle_tables

Multi-line description, must keep indentation.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.print_dvds_info

Print out information about the velocity gradients in the cells to a file root.dvds.diag.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.save_photons

Multi-line description, must keep indentation.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.save_extract_photons

Multi-line description, must keep indentation.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.keep_ioncycle_windsaves

Decide whether or not to keep a copy of the windsave file after each ionization cycle in order to track the changes as the code converges. Produces files of format python01.wind_save and so on (02,03...) for subsequent cycles.

Type: Boolean(yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.track_resonant_scatters

Multi-line description, must keep indentation.

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.extra`: True

File: diag.c

Diag.use_standard_care_factors

Advanced command which allows one to change various other defaults associated with radiative transfer, inclusing the fractional distance in a cell that a photon can travel

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

File: diag.c

Diag.lowest_ion_density_for_photoabs

For efficiency reasons, Python does not try to calculate photoabsorption for an ion with an extremly low density. This advance parameter changes this density limit

Type: Double

Unit: n/cm**3

Values: Greater than 0

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.use_standard_care_factors`: False

File: diag.c

Diag.keep_photoabs_in_final_spectra

This advanced options allows you to include or exclude photoabsorpiotn in calculating the final spectra. (but ksl does not know what the default is)

Type: Boolean (yes/no)

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.use_standard_care_factors`: False

File: diag.c

Diag.fractional_distance_photon_may_travel

The distance photon may travel in a cell is limited to prevent a photon from moving such a long path that the velocity may change non-linearly. This problem arises primarily when the photon is travelling azimuthally in the grid. This changes the default for the fraction of the maximum distance in a cell.

Type: Double

Values: 0 to 1

Parent(s):

• :ref:`Diag.use_standard_care_factors`: False
