At Ohio State I use some of the laser physics in the FLASH code. FLASH users are discouraged by the DOE from using the laser package with the thermonuclear burn algorithms that were developed for supernovae simulations. However, the code
should still be useful to you even without without coupling those two things together. That is unless you are designing nuclear weapons, in which case your project would be ruined. :)<br>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I would like to introduce myself to this group. My name is Michael Sabino, and I am drawn here due to my fascination of simulations of fusion+hydro+grav+... on computers.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>First things first, and my first goal is to simulate something I can understand, and then hopefully get across to others.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
I'd looked at SpeciesList.txt to add deuterium, tritium, and helium-4 to simulate detonation in those materials (primarily to familiarize myself with some aspects of FLASH), and I believe I've added them correctly, but I get some unexpected results.<br>
<br>
</div>
The main question is: What are the last and 2nd to last fields in the SpeciesList.txt that are identified with "??" in the Simulation_initSpecies.F90 comment? Are they important?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>The model I am using is a modified version of CellularDetonation, where I added deuterium and tritium in place of carbon-12 and attempted to detonate a 50:50 mixture of it.<br>
<br>
</div>
The spurious results I wasn't expecting were issues with the density in the grid cells showing up as a very low number and erroring out to stdout. So low, that it was below the smlrho and nuclearDensMin settings. I had to lower those. The low values of density
presumably have something to do with the low temperature and density fusion requirements of DT and DD, which I configured in my upstream temperature and density profile in flash.par. After disabling useShockBurn and doing the above, it seemed to be proceeding
without errors (albeit slowly, since it was evaluating the fusion routines a lot more), but I'll keep you up-to-date.<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks,<br>
