Hi Joel,

unfortunately, there isn't (yet).

Currently, Cactus is only working with Cartesian grids, making it 
ill-suited for purely one-dimensional, spherically-symmetric calculations. 

The closest you can get is using an octant of a Cartesian box and then 
applying Cartoon boundary conditions (see Shibata et al).

Hope this helps,

    Christian
