     3Astrobear supports both implicit and explicit thermal diffusion that is both isotropic and anistropic.  We first derive the equations for the implicit-anisotropic case, and then discuss simplifications that arise for isotropic and explicit versions.

    26The anisotropic conduction equation looks like
     
    4448$\partial_t T = \displaystyle \sum_{\parallel, \perp} A \partial_i  B_{ij} \partial_j T^{\lambda+1}$
    4549
    46 where the $\parallel$ or $\perp$ subscript on $A$, $B_{ij}$, and $lambda$ is implied.

    4852$A_\parallel = \frac{\kappa_\parallel}{\rho c_v  \left ( \lambda_\parallel + 1\right ) }$ and $A_\perp = \frac{\kappa_\perp}{\rho c_v  \left (\lambda_\perp + 1 \right )}$
