\section{Introduction}

This thorn provides a source term to the scalar field evolution
for two rotating binary charges.


\section{Physical System}

The 3D scalar wave equation with a source term $\rho(t,x,y,z)$ is written
$$
\nabla \phi = 4 \pi \rho
$$

Each scalar source with charge $Q$ and radius $R$ contributes 
$$
\rho = \frac{3Q}{4\pi R^3}
$$

\section{Numerical Implementation}

The only involved part of this thorn arise in working out where the
sources are located (if at all) on each local grid for a multiprocessor
run. The source terms are not numerically evolved, but are calculated 
exactly, based on the physical time and their orbital velocity.

A routine is scheduled to run {\it after} the homogeneous equation
for the scalar field has been evolved, and simply updates the value
of the scalar field by adding on the source contribution.
