GLOW v. 0.97
Release notes, Stan Solomon, stans@ucar.edu, 4/05
See glow.txt for more details
See glowlicense.txt for the Open Source Academic Research License Agreement
New features:
Relativistic correction to electron impact cross sections included
Maxwellian or monoenergetic fluxes generated by MAXT
Possible to use any solar grid by changing only input files
Photoabsorption and photoionization cross sections supplied in files
SSFLUX completely re-written:
Model parameters supplied in files
Default is ~1 nm grid (5 nm in FUV)
Hinteregger model still there (ISCALE=0)
EUVAC also available (ISCALE=1)
Any user grid and input supported by changing only input files (ISCALE=2)
Common block CGLOW is unchanged
Should facilitate upgrade path for existing programs
But there are now several obsolete artifacts
Issues addressed in this release:
Fixed two problems with Auger electron production
Fixed some small bugs in O(1S) calculation
Adjusted N(2D)+O rate coefficient to Fell et al. value (6.9e-13)
Adjusted C III on N2 cross section to fix O2 ionization rate problem
Removed various artifacts, including EAURI
Removed unnecessary N(2D) initial guess (now just set to zero)
Now use standard energy and altitude grid in both day and aurora examples
Known problems:
X-rays shortward of 18 A need to be re-examined and updated.
Magnetic field (GEOMAG, FIELDM) is out of date, really need to update to
IGRF, but at the resolutions typical here should be OK for now.
Temporary Y2K fix to SUNCOR. Should be fine for 1950-2050, but really
need to change from yyddd to yyyyddd date format, which will enable
range of validity to extend from 1900-2100. (This only affects SZA.)
Need to include SNOE empirical NO model instead of single profile.
O(1S) needs to be re-evaluated (still).
O(1S) from O2 dissociation (BSO2) is currently hardwired - only works with
LMAX=123 (although changes shortward of 800 A are OK).
IRI and MSIS should be updated to 2000 versions.
Long term:
Would like to move all cross sections to file input, and utilize full
specification of N2 triplet and singlet states.
File handling - currently required to put input data files on current working
directory - could use environment variables or directory argument to
make this more general - any ideas?
Eventually would like to get rid of common block CGLOW, and go with a more
modern approach.
