Function adas.run_adas204

Runs the adas204 bundle-n population code. Input and output are files.

Parameters

adf25 : str

full name of ADAS adf25 driver file

adf17 : str

output file of projection matrices

logfile : str

name of log file

popfile : str, optional

output file of population details

projfile : str, optional

output file with projection details

acdfile : str, optional

output file of recombination coefficients

scdfile : str, optional

output file of ionization coefficients

xcdfile : str, optional

output file of cross-coupling coefficients

prbfile : str, optional

output file of recombination powers

pcasfile : str, optional

output file of wavelength binned recombination power

Notes

adas204 is used to produce the projection matrix data (adf17 format) used in generalized collisional-radiative (GCR) modelling. This may take a few minutes to run, depending on computer capabilities.

Calls a fortran executable code and communicates via a bi-directional pipe connected to stdout.
