Summary Files

The data written to summary files are controlled by the summary_item_list parameter of the &ad_output namelist group (for adiabatic calculations) and the &nad_output namelist group (for nonadiabatic calculations). This parameter is a comma-separated list of items to appear in the summary file; the following subsections describe the items that may appear, grouped together by functional area. For each item, the corresponding math symbol is given (if there is one), together with the datatype, and a brief description. Units (where applicable) are indicated in brackets [].
