NLUF stuff

Draft of initial condition setup (shock speed = 80um/ns coming from the left).

In the rad-hydro simulation, the radiation precursor would hit the target first, followed by the thick ablator front:

Here's a cut of density using Spitzer resistivity at 60ns. The shock is coming from left of speed 80um/ns (about Mach 60):


One problem is that the post-shock temperature I'm getting in this simulation is about 600ev (which is correct for adiabatic jump condition). This is very different from Peter's earlier rad-hydro simulation (only ~10ev). Radiative cooling needs to be included in the simulation. Our in-dev radiative transfer could be used in generating the initial condition:
