  • Added new polarization parameter for this test
  • New Circularly_Polarized_Alfven_Wave initial condition type. Note that this test has a very limited set of initial conditions where it is meaningful and so most of them are hard coded and the rest are checked with assert statements
  • Lowered the maximum divergence to 1E-9 after discussing with Chris White of the Flatiron institute who's an Athena dev.
  • Added new system tests for the circularly polarized alfven wave
  • New parameter file for the circularly polarized alfven wave
  • Minor refactor of MHD utils to make more consistent use of the computeMagneticEnergy function.
