Coordinate System

• cartesian
• cylindrical:<+m|-m>
• other

We still have to decide if it is that general that it goes in the openPMD base format or into openPMD + ED-PIC for the beginning.

More references for general mesh, maybe for the future

probably we should add it as planned for the solver-parameters:

coordinates

• cartesian
• cylindrical
• other

coordinatesParameters

• e.g. for m=3 and positive definition of the imaginary part m=3;imag=+

This sounds good to me.

See you

It's the OpePMD format and not the OpenPD format, so I'd say yes.
