Sources diagnostics

xgc.fsourcediag.bp contains diagnostics for the source operations performed on the 5D mesh (the 5D mesh consists of a 3D unstructured triangular mesh in configuration space and a 2D structured rectangular grid in velocity space).

xgc.neutrals.#####.bp where ##### is the time step contains neutral particles diagnostics.

xgc.fsourcediag.bp
Printed when: diag_f0_df_on=.true..   Output frequency: every diag_f0_df_period*sml_f_source_period time step.
