With the introduction of the Variable Soft Sphere model in the current release, the input parameters of the collision model have changed:

! Old: Part-Species1-VHSReferenceTemp = 273
Part-Species1-Tref = 273 
! Old: Part-Species1-VHSReferenceDiam = 4E-10
Part-Species1-dref = 4E-10
! Old: Part-Species1-omegaVHS = 0.24
Part-Species1-omega = 0.24

The code will abort, when using the old parameters. More details can be found in Section "4.7.4 Species Definition" and "4.7.5 Pairing & Collision Modelling".

Features

  • 1D Simulation (e.g. for shock-tube simulations, see Section "4.7.3 Symmetric Simulations")
  • Variable Soft Sphere (VSS) collision model and support for collision and species-specific VHS/VSS parameters (see Section "4.7.5 Pairing & Collision Modelling")

Improvements

  • Display the elapsed CPU time in std.out when ABORT is called

Fixes

  • Bugfix in photo-ionization: third particle did not receive a velocity change
  • Fixed evaluation of BGField in EvaluateFieldAtPhysPos and EvaluateFieldAtRefPos
