Ideas for future development

page Main Page
Right now, the equation of state classes depend on the user to input the correct value of non_interacting for the particle inputs. This is not very graceful...

Class apr_eos
There might be room to improve the testing of the finite temperature part a bit.

Class apr_eos
There is some repetition between calc_e() and calc_e_temp() that possibly could be removed.

Class bps_eos
Can the pressure be made to match more closely?

Class bps_eos
Convert to a hadronic_eos object and offer an associated interface?

Class cfl_njl_eos
This class internally mixes ovector, omatrix, gsl_vector and gsl_matrix objects in a confusing and non-optimal way. Fix this.

Class cfl_njl_eos
Allow user to change derivative object? This isn't possible right now because the stepsize parameter of the derivative object is used.

Class cold_nstar
Ensure that the adiabatic index of the central density is greater than 4/3

Class cold_nstar
Warn if the EOS becomes pure neutron matter.

Class ddc_eos
Implement the finite temperature EOS properly.

Class gen_potential_eos
Calculate the chemical potentials analytically

Class hadronic_eos
Could write a function to compute the "symmetry free energy" or the "symmetry entropy"

Class nse_eos
Right now calc_density() needs a very good guess. This could be fixed, probably by solving for the log(mu/T) instead of mu.

Class rmf_delta_eos
Finish the finite temperature EOS

Global rmf_eos::calc_e (fermion &ne, fermion &pr, thermo &lth)
Improve the operation of this function when the proton density is zero.

Global rmf_eos::calc_e (fermion &ne, fermion &pr, thermo &lth, double &sig, double &ome, double &rho)
Improve the operation of this function when the proton density is zero.

Class tov_buchdahl_eos
Figure out what to do with the buchfun() function

Class tov_solve
  • Turn numbers in max() function into variables

Global tov_solve::bio
Is this really required?
