Note: if the domain is too small, then the burning will decouple from
the shock wave, and you will not get a detonation.

Some important inputs files

* `inputs-det-x.nse` : this produces a nice detonation that gets hot
enough for the ash to be in NSE.

* `inputs-det-x.subch_base`: this produces a He4 detonation using the
same initial condition in the shell burning stage of the subchandra problem.
