a Saha ionization solver
The figure below shows ionization fractions for unionized, singly, and doubly ionized Calcium.
Compare to Figure 2.6 of "Supernovae and Nucleosynthesis", David Arnett.
To build Sitar, simply
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make -jThen an executable saha will be created in build/src.
An observation: a Saha solver requires an iterative solver, such as Newton-Raphson. Implementing Anderson accelerated Newton-Raphson provides a roughly 4x speedup for the calculations above.
Compilation and regression tests are run on each PR.
We use clang format (here)
and ruff (here) for code cleanliness.
C++ rules are listed in .clang-format.
The current version of clang-format used is clang-format-13, probably.
Simply call tools/bash/format.sh to format the .hpp and .cpp files.
Python code linting and formatting is done with ruff.
Rules are listed in ruff.toml.
To check all python in the current directory, you may ruff .
To format a given file according to ruff.toml, run ruff format file.py.
Checks for formatting are performed on each PR.
