    4040[[latex($e \propto \kappa_P \rho L t^2$)]] (density doesn't change given t_diff << t_sc)
    4141
    42 Check: Make curve of e_total(t).
     42This holds as long as 4 pi B << the energy injected each time step. That way we can effectively ignore changes to thermal energy induced by increasing B(T).

     44Check: Make curve of e_total(t), E_total(t).

     46Prediction: The total radiative energy should increase as:

     52Check: Make curve of Erad_total(t).
