Type of Rosenbrock method by its coefficients

A Fortran code that solves stiff PDE systems contains the following arrays of Rosenbrock-Wanner method coefficients:

  parameter( ROWcc= 0.43586652150845900 )

parameter( ROWb1 =(/ 0.0021103008548132443, &
.88607515441580453, &
-0.32405197677907682, &
0.43586652150845900 /) )

parameter( ROWb2 =(/ 0.50000000000000000, &
0.38752422953298199, &
-0.20949226315045236, &
0.32196803361747034 /) )

parameter( ROWa=reshape( (/ 0., 0.5, 0.5, 0.5,  &
0., 0., 0.5, 0.5,  &
0., 0., 0., 0. /), &
(/ ROWns,ROWns-1 /) ) )

parameter( ROWc=reshape( (/ 0., -0.5, -0.79156480420464204, -0.49788969914518677 , &
0., 0.,   0.35244216792751432, 0.38607515441580453, &
0., 0., 0., -0.32405197677907682 /), &
(/ ROWns,ROWns-1 /) ) )


How can one determine what type of a Rosenbrock-Wanner (RK ROW) method does this code use solely from the coefficients? Search engine and universit library queries have not yielded successful results.

A search for the specific coefficients listed led me to the method ROS3PRL from

J. Sieber, Konvergenzanalyse und Numerische Tests für die Prothero–Robinson–Gleichung (Master thesis), TU Darmstadt, 2014.

I can't seem to find this thesis online, but the method is mentioned in the following which may be of interest.

To answer your more general question on how to track down a method from coefficients, he are some things to keep in mind:

• The $$\gamma$$ coefficient is usually closely tied to the order of accuracy and stability. The choice $$\gamma \approx .4358665$$ is frequently seen on third order, L-stable Runge-Kutta and Rosenbrock methods
• Based on your tag, it's used to solve a parabolic PDE. Rosenbrock methods for DAEs, SPPs, and parabolic PDEs must satisfy additional order conditions on top of the classical ones to avoid order reduction. This can be used to narrow down the search.
