Discontinuity Definition Stuff
IMPORTANT: TTBOX needs the core mantle boundary and the inner core boundary
being defined. Without defining these discontinuities, MKX4P and MKTIM4P will
crash sooner or later, since CMB and ICB depths are used to restrict ray parameter
ranges.

Depth to &gamma-spinel-Perovskite Boundary. Must be NaN if not specified.
This is named after the mean depth on earth in order to get a short name. |
cmb |
numeric scalar |
km |
Depth to the Core-Mantle-Boundary. Must be NaN if not specified. |
icb |
numeric scalar |
km |

dz |
numeric vector |
km |
Depths of non-standard discontinuites. Must be empty if none specified. |

string matrix |
- |
Names of non-standard discontinuities. dname(i,:) is the name string for the
i-th non-standard discontinuity, the depth of which is given in dz(i).
