-For production runs, the domain needs to be extended in x so that the sheared interface doesn't reach the boundaries.
+For production runs, the domain needs to be extended in x so that the sheared interface doesn't reach the boundaries. If we are to run the sim out for 20 Myr, here is a potential box size for shear 60 case - http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~erica/Testing_60_box_size.gif
 
 '''Instabilities''': Beta = 1 is too strong of a field, as it completely prevents formation of the 3 instabilities relevant to molecular cloud formation; thermal instabilities, kelvin helmoltz waves, and the NTSI are all absent in the strong field case. The NTSI seems to be strongest in the hydro case, and KH seems to increase in strength with increasing shear angle.
