Schematic representation of a single timestep in our full network code. { Y0(Z1,A1),Y0(Z2,A2),... } denotes the set of initial nuclei abundances, ρ0 is the initial mass density, ρ(t) defines the density evolution, T0 is the initial temperature, Ye,0 denotes the initial electron fraction, and nn,0 is the initial neutron density. First the neutron decay is computed before the reaction network is solved using the Crank-Nicholson algorithm. Next the fission contribution is calculated along with the new physical parameters. If the changes in abundance or nn are too large, the timestep is reattempted with dt = 0.1dt. Adaptive timesteps are used to maximize dt.
