IMIX = 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4
Default: IMIX = 4 

Description: IMIX specifies the type of mixing.


The mixed density is given by
with =AMIX and =BMIX
If BMIX is chosen to be very small, e.g. BMIX=0.0001, a simple straight mixing is obtained. Please mind, that BMIX=0 might cause floating point exceptions on some platforms.
  • IMIX=2: A variant of the popular Tchebycheff mixing scheme.[2]
In our implementation a second order equation of motion is used, that reads:
with =AMIX, =BMIX, and =AMIN.
