+* ``warpx.override_sync_int`` (`integer`) optional (default `10`)
+ Number of time steps between synchronization of sources (`rho` and `J`) on
+ grid nodes at box boundaries. Since the grid nodes at the interface between
+ two neighbor boxes are duplicated in both boxes, an instability can occur
+ if they have too different values. This option makes sure that they are
+ synchronized periodically.
