Parameters
----------
xmin, xmax : float
The minimum and maximum bounds of the X (spatial/momentum) axis.
x_np : int
Number of (logarithmic grid) points/cells along the X axis
tstep : float
Specify to use the constant time step for solving the equation.
f_advection : function
Function f(x,t) to calculate the advection coefficient B(x,t)
f_diffusion : function
Function f(x,t) to calculate the diffusion coefficient C(x,t)
f_injection : function
Function f(x,t) to calculate the injection coefficient Q(x,t)
f_escape : function, optional
Function f(x,t) to calculate the escape coefficient T(x,t)
buffer_np : int, optional
Number of grid cells taken as the buffer regions near both the
lower and upper boundaries. The values within the buffer regions
will be replaced by extrapolating with a power law to avoid
unphysical pile-ups.
The fix will be ignored if this parameter is ``None`` or is less
than 2.
(This parameter is suggested to be about 5%-10% of ``x_np``.)
NOTE
----
All above functions should accept two parameters: ``(x, t)``,
where ``x`` is an 1D float `~numpy.ndarray` representing the adopted
logarithmic grid points along the spatial/energy axis, ``t`` is the
time of each solving step.
NOTE
----
The diffusion coefficients (i.e., calculated by ``f_diffusion()``)
should be *positive* (i.e., C(x) > 0), otherwise unstable or wrong
results may occur, due to the current numerical scheme/algorithm
adopted.
