The TOVSolver thorn in the Einstein Toolkit does not directly output its (1D) result anywhere but instead directly interpolates to the 3D Cactus grid. You could edit the source code (in tov.c there should be a function called solve or so and a function that interpolates, you can look around for the `for(k = 0 ; k < cctk_lsh[3]; k++)` or so loops which are where the interpolation to the 3D grid happens. Just before will be the 1D solve. Having said that the NRPy+ code also has a TOVSolver (in Python and with some C code generation as well I think) that you may find useful. Your best chance is probably to contact the NRPy+ developers (who are usually subscribed to this mailing list). The TOVSolver is here: https://github.com/zachetienne/nrpytutorial/tree/master/TOV and the person to contact is most likely Zach Etienne (see https://www.nrpyplus.net/download-en_US.html).
