Hi Konrad,

All of the hdf5 2d outputs (e.g. admbase::lapse) include the grid data as well at each iteration.  For these quick things, I tend to use Visit from LLNL to plot the lapse and the mesh overtop so I can see the position of the grid as the system evolves.  You could likely do the same plot with something like KuiBit, but I haven't messed with plotting the grid with that yet.

Also, in the output you just sent, it looks like you are using your grhydro par file, however, in the grhydro par you sent before, quite a lot of the puncture tracker settings are commented out including track puncture.

Finally, the warnings of "the refined region #" is inactive for a specific surface is also likely a contributor.  I'm sure Erik et al are more knowledgeable on resolving this, but usually this was an issue I had based on my refinement level and spherical surface setup.

Cheers,

Samuel

Hi

I cannot set up the tracker correctly in either of these parameter files.
The "pt_loc_" timeseries all display the (0,0,0) position at all times.
The 'NaNMask' data is probably corrupted by simulation shutting down, as I cannot open it.

What are the "mesh grid variables" exactly that I should use in this diagnostics and in which thorns should I look for them?

Here's part of the log (common for both simulations in the PunctureTracker part):

I'm also sending the initial data to confirm the initial guess for the puncture.

    Hi Konrad,

    The matter looks reasonable in all the iterations until the end,
    so that's good. Have you looked at the mesh grid to see if both
    objects are being tracked properly? You asked about this being a
    possibility in your first note, but didn't mention if you looked
    at the grid or not.

    Cheers,
    Samuel

        Hi Sam

        I am sending the pictures of the density in a few iterations.
        Something indeed goes *very *bad (and possibly in the wrong
        direction pretty soon from the start).

        But before a chunk of the NS turns into atmosphere it doesn't
        look like it would end up like that.

        This is rho.maximum:

        0 0 0.00181508688452629
        16 0.4 0.00181562065714772
        32 0.8 0.00181716349263237
        48 1.2 0.00181971188439579

        80 2 0.00182773078378139

        And this is rho.average:

        0 0 1.23447090415481e-07
        16 0.4 1.2346439769246e-07

            Hi Konrad,

            Have you checked the import of the ID from the hydro point
            of view (i.e. plot rho in for the first iterations). If
            you see drastic changes in the NS density in the initial
            iterations, it usually means the EOS manager isn't
            configured correctly which routinely results in the NS
            "vanishing" thereby destroying the solution and the
            evolution.

            Cheers,
            Samuel

            constraint violations and general problems

                Hi all

                I am trying to run a BH-NS simulation using at least
                one of some (and sometimes more) unofficial thors.
                That would be Kadath for the initial data and possibly
                THC for hydro evolution.
                I'm trying to run the simulation either with GRHydro
                or with THC.

                In both cases I believe that the initial data gets
                imported correctly - I have looked at some simple
                visuals which I'm attaching to this mail.

                However, as the simulation proceeds, huge hamiltonian
                constraint violations occur and e.x. the lapse gets
                driven to 0 globally. This can also be seen.

                How can I help this? Is it because the puncture is not
                tracked correctly? Trying to set up a PunctureTracker
                at the location of the black hole yields a failure
                very soon, as the shift at puncture is said to be
                (nan, nan, nan).

                I'm sending the .par files, outputs (.out), errors
                (.err) and visualization (.png).

                Best regards
                Konrad
