These multistage methods are explicit Runge-Kutta methods that are often used as smoothers for
FAS multigrid for transport problems. In the linear case, these are equivalent to polynomial smoothers (such as Chebyshev).
<P>
Multi-stage smoothers should usually be preconditioned by point-block Jacobi to ensure proper scaling and to normalize the wave speeds.
<P>
The methods are specified in low storage form (Ketcheson 2010). New methods can be registered with <A HREF="../SNES/SNESMSRegister.html#SNESMSRegister">SNESMSRegister</A>().
