Question of starting codition order TS72 vs. KMN15

Open jrenaud90 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Kamata et al. (2015) has the two starting solutions for RadialSolver k^2 +/- (see their Eq. B13) implying that solution 1 uses the + version and solution 2 uses the minus.

Takeuchi & Saito (1972) have similar starting solution definitions but order them as -/+ (see their Eq. 99).

TidalPy has the option to use both starting solutions. For Kamata we use +/- and for Takeuchi we use -/+. See the respective equations in "RadialSolver.starting".
