A full 10^51 erg explosion causes temperatures to exceed XNet's capabilities. This is because the 5/3 cold degenerate equation of state with mu=1/2 is crap in this regime. A star with radially varying composition, and an equation of state to reflect that, is required for additional realism. |

| + | ppmlr.f90 needs to be modified so that once the Lagrange step was taken, the values needed to not be put back onto the Eulerian grid. | ||
| + | * remove the "wiggle" part of the file that adds dissipation for carbuncular noise. Since this is only really a problem in higher dimension, we completely removed this for simplicity. | ||
| + | * Instead of defining xf=xf0 define xf0=xf (i.e. make the Eulerian coordinates move to match the Lagrangian ones) | ||
| + | * If the final "remap" command is commented out, the code misbehaves, though we don't know why a remap should be needed. Leave the final remap in. | ||

| VH1 outputs NaN's when the simulation is run in CGS units. Presumably, this is because it is programmed using floats rather than double precision numbers, and the separation in numbers results in problematic subtractive cancellation. To fix this problem, we re-defined our units of mass and radius to be those of solar mass and solar radius. The following led to successful simulations. | VH1 outputs NaN's when the simulation is run in CGS units.
