I would first like to thank you for creating this excellent set of easily
usable tools!
Second, in order to reproduce some results I need to run a network
calculation that works exactly like run_constant_entropy (that is, with
constant entropy per nucleon) except I don't want to start it in NSE with all the participating nuclei, but rather in an NSE constrained to a few
select isotopes (that is, I want it to read from mass fractions like
run_single_zone). I suspect this is relatively simple but I can't figure
out the necessary modification. Just specifying the nuclear xpath obviously
does not work since that excludes those isotopes from participating at all;
I just want to constrain the initial abundances. Perhaps I can add the
density/entropy calculation procedures to a custom version of
run_single_zone?
I believe I have figured it out myself by modifying the property updating functions and variables in run_single_zone to match that of run_constant_entropy. Hopefully.
