Use this page to customize your nucleosynthesis calculation. There are two main sets of inputs - the first requires XML-style data, while the second requires single values or choices.

Network, Initial Abundances, and Thermodynamics

This data must be entered in a custom XML format in order to ensure that this network code can read it properly. Various browsers, platforms, and programs have different interpretations of a space, tab, line return, etc., so this XML format is required.

• The required XML format for Network data is <z>integer</z> <n1>integer</n1> <n2>integer</n2>. Data entered in a different form will generate an error.
• The required XML format for Initial Abundances data is <z>integer</z> <a>integer</a> <x>floating-point number</x>. Data entered in a different form will generate an error. The sum of the numbers in the x tags must be within 10^-4 of 1.0: .
• The required XML format for Thermodynamics data is <time>number</time> <t9>number</t9> <rho>number</rho> <rad>number</rad>. Data entered in a different form will generate an error.
• A null data line will be entered after your data; this is required for the network code, and does not need to be entered by the user.

Initial Conditions:

This section will allow the input of initial conditions such as temperature, entropy, and explosion type. When the conditions are entered, be sure to save them using the "Save Initial Conditions" button in the pop-up frame.
