    31 After computing the accretion energy for the particle, we then smooth this energy over a kernel of cells, which then becomes a source term for the radiative transfer solver. To ensure that the sum of the differential energies over the kernel equals the total accretion energy calculated, we have the following equation:

    51 While the set of equations for the kernel is arbitrary, as we will see in the next section, this normalization constant allows us to easily feed into the source function a ''specific'' accretion energy (i.e. E/V), which is necessary for the code's solvers.
