[FLASH-USERS] Regarding ms_targZMin

[Matthew Trantham]

I am also experiencing similar problems using sesame tables. I cannot get
the laser to drive a shock using a sesame table I cut out myself per the
example in the manual (although al-imx-003.ses does work in LaserSlab).

I tried the LaserSlab problem in 1D, also using the 3720 table. I see no
compression or heating of the Aluminum although there is laser deposition
and expansion of the Aluminum. I've attached images of the Ion/Electron
temps, Mass Density and Material boundaries, and the Laser Deposition.

Finally, the problem is not constrained to 3720, I've tried a lot of tables
and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
