Description

I would like to brush off the needed requirements to make the SDC 4th order make it work with the nova problem. I have the following plan:

Is important to stress that AMR and GPU are not supported for this method. Thus we need to run with MPI+OpenMP.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reading and recreating the calculations in the linked paper, then find an example that uses the SDC method. Determine the requirements for fourth-order SDC to work with the nova problem, using MPI+OpenMP and excluding AMR and GPU support; done means the nova problem runs with this method.
