diag_style propensity command

Syntax: 

diag_style propensity keyword value keyword value ...
  • propensity = style name of this diagnostic zero or more keyword/value pairs may be appended

    Examples: 

    diag_style propensity

    Description:

    The propensity diagnostic computes the total propensity of all lattice sites in the system. The propensity is printed as stats output via the stats command.

    The propensity can be thought of as the relative probablity of a site site to perform a KMC event. Note that if you are doing Metropolis MC and not kinetic MC, no propensity is defined.

    Restrictions:

    This diagnostic can only be used for on-lattice applications.

    This diagnostic can only be used for KMC simulations where a solver is defined.
