``<source_point>`` Element
--------------------------
The ``<source_point>`` element indicates at what batches the source bank
should be written. The source bank can be either written out within a state
point file or separately in a source point file. This element has the following
attributes/sub-elements:
:batches:
A list of integers separated by spaces indicating at what batches a state
point file should be written. It should be noted that if source_separate
tag is not set to "true", this list must be a subset of state point batches.
*Default*: Last batch only
:interval:
A single integer :math:`n` indicating that a state point should be written
every :math:`n` batches. This option can be given in lieu of listing
batches explicitly. It should be noted that if source_separate tag is not
set to "true", this value should produce a list of batches that is a subset
of state point batches.
*Default*: None
:source_separate:
If this element is set to "true", a separate binary source file will be
If this element is set to "true", a separate binary source point file will be
written. Otherwise, the source sites will be written in the state point
directly.
*Default*: false
:source_write: If this element is set to "false", source sites are not written
to the state point file. This can substantially reduce the size of state
points if large numbers of particles per batch are used.
:source_write:
If this element is set to "false", source sites are not written
to the state point or source point file. This can substantially reduce the
size of state points if large numbers of particles per batch are used.
*Default*: true
:overwrite_latest:
If this element is set to "true", a source point file containing
the source bank will be written out to a separate file named
``source.binary`` or ``source.h5`` depending on if HDF5 is enabled.
This file will be overwritten at every single batch so that the latest
source bank will be available. It should be noted that a user can set both
this element to "true" and specify batches to write a permanent source bank.
