FUNCTION AnalyticCoolingSlope(REAL[] q)

Defined In:

contrib/astro/physics/i_i_ODEs.f90

Inputs:

REAL[] q. A one-dimensional array of field variables (the contents of a cell).

Returns:

The function returns a real, unscaled value calculated from an analytic cooling function.

Description:

Takes the field variables for a single cell and calculates the slope of the analytic cooling curve used in our ​Delamarter shock test. This curve is of the form lambda/n2 = bTa. If the temperature in the cell is below the MinTemp value read in from physics.data (see ReadPhysics()), then AnalyticCoolingSlope() returns 0.
