From 2960ea13adf5d95b4bb2f6869d59186b2c9b2158 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron LI Date: Tue, 25 Jul 2017 09:32:12 +0800 Subject: clusters/halo: Change config "eta_turb" to "beta_turb" This configuration option "beta_turb" has different meaning as "eta_turb" in [Cassano & Brunetti 2005], though they can both be an indicator for the turbulence acceleration efficiency. Rename this configuration option to make the difference more clear.
