\mbox{}\\
- These is a Boolean parameters specifying whether or not
- \thorn{AHFinderDirect} should try to find apparent horizons.
- at each time step (at the \code{CCTK\_POSTSTEP} Cactus schedule bin).
- By default it's \verb|true|, \ie{} you just need to activate
- \thorn{AHFinderDirect} for it to try to find apparent horizons.
+ This is an integer parameter specifying how often
+ \thorn{AHFinderDirect} should try to find apparent horizons:
+ If $\verb|find_every| = 0$, \thorn{AHFinderDirect} is a no-op.
+ If $\verb|find_every| \ne 0$, \thorn{AHFinderDirect} tries to
+ find apparent horizons each \verb|find_every| time steps.%%%
+\footnote{%%%
+ More precisely, if ${\tt find\_every} \ne 0$,
+ \thorn{AHFinderDirect} tries to find apparent
+ horizons at each time step where {\tt cctk\_iteration}
+ is evenly divisible by {\tt find\_every}.
+ }%%%
+{} The default value is~1, \ie{} \thorn{AHFinderDirect} tries
+ to find apparent horizons at every time step.
\item[\code{N\_horizons}]
\mbox{}\\
How many apparent horizons do you want to find in each slice?
Typical values are 1 (the default), 2, or 3.%%%
\footnote{%%%
Larger values are also possible. The present upper
- limit is 10, but it would be very easy to raise this
+ limit is 10, but it would be trivial to raise this
further if desired -- see the comments in \code{param.ccl}
for details.
