Please keep replies on the mesa-users list Each of the tools listed there are supported by the community, not the mesa team. You'll need to follow the links provided to see if there are any guides/instructions for using them, you could also try contacting the author(s) of the tool you want to use to see if they are willing to provide any assistance. You may find it easier to follow josiah's link and follow the instructions there on how to do basic plotting.

Dear Abdelbassit — It looks like you have edited utils/makefile_header to use ifort, rather than the MESA SDK. Please return makefile_header to its original state, run ‘./clean’, and then try ‘./install’ again. cheers, Rich > On Jun 26, 2017, at 9:35 AM, AbdelBassit Abdessamed Senhadji <se...@ho...> wrote: > > Hi : > > I installed MESA SDK and all requirments on the cluster (Mammouth in Quebec) > > When i write : ./install, I get this error.

Hi : I installed MESA SDK and all requirments on the cluster (Mammouth in Quebec) When i write : ./install, I get this error. Can any one help me on that ? Thanks ! Abdelbassit |

Hi Abdelbassit, > For the MESA SDK i did not know how to download it and install it. The procedure on a cluster is basically the same as on your local machine. Download it, extract it, and then set the paths appropriately. You can consult the MESA SDK FAQ if you are unfamiliar with downloading from the command line. http://www.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/static.php?ref=mesasdk#Frequently_Asked_Questions_.01FAQ.01 Hope that helps, Josiah |

Hi mesa users : I am trying to install mesa 9793 on a cluster (Mammouth in Quebec) I downloaded MESA directly using : svn co -r 9793 svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/mesa/code/trunk mesa9793 For the MESA SDK i did not know how to download it and install it. Any one could help me please ? Thank you ! Abdelbassit |

Dear mesa users, 1, Are there parameters in mesa that tells the ionization fraction of (HI to HII) and of (HeI to HeII) please? I search around mesa/star/public/star_data.inc, but did not find any. But maybe I miss something there. 2, For calculating kappa mechanism due to H or He opacity bumps for driving stellar oscillation, which kappa table and eos table should be adopted please? The default in mesa-r8118 are kappa_file_prefix = 'gn93' eos_file_prefix = 'mesa' eosDT_Z1_suffix = '_CO_1' eosPT_Z1_suffix = '_CO_1' Many thanks 😊😊😊😊 Sincerely, Jing |

Hi Jing — Your model is in FGONG format, but you tell GYRE it is in MESA format. To fix, either specify pulse_data_format = ‘GYRE’ in the MESA inlist, or specify file_format = ‘FGONG’ in the GYRE inlist. FYI, there is another problem with your GYRE inlist — you need to replace the freq_units parameter with freq_min_units and freq_max_units parameters. cheers, Rich > On Jun 22, 2017, at 7:42 PM, Jing Luan <jin...@gm...> wrote: > > Dear mesa users, > > Not quite sure whether this is the very proper place to ask.

Dear mesa users, Not quite sure whether this is the very proper place to ask. But I guess there must a decent number of mesa users who also use gyre. Apology for that! I create a model file for gyre-5.0 using mesa-r8118. I run gyre separately from mesa, and it reports the following err message: *Model Init==========Reading from MESA file File name 1.5M-delta-Scuti.mesaAt line 258 of file gyre_mesa_file.f90Fortran runtime error: Bad integer for item 1 in list input* I did the same procedure, i.e. creating a model file using mesa and then feeding it to gyre, for a white dwarf using the same version of mesa and gyre before, and it worked fine. I attach my inlist for mesa, file 'gyre.in' for gyre, and the mesa model file. Many thanks! Sincerely, Jing |

Jing, The error is telling you what the problem is: "Cannot match namelist object name hr_file_interval” Namelists sometime change across versions, and you need to update your inlist to reflect this. Please check the defaults files, for example hr_file_interval has changed to HR_file_cnt.

In version 8118 hr_file_interval should instead be HR_file_cnt See http://mesa.sourceforge.net/docs/r8118/pgstar_defaults.html (or look in $MESA_DIR/star/defaults) for the valid inlist options for the version you are using.

If you do want to limit the timestep then don't forget to look in http://mesa.sourceforge.net/controls_defaults.html#timestep_controls There are many options (plus always the option to set your own timestep limiter in a run_star_extras file) including limits on the maximum timestep taken.

To follow up on Josiah's excellent response,
1st) do you really mean 10^-11 seconds? is that perhaps a typo?
2nd) when I'm doing core collapse supernovae explosions in mesa the timesteps get down to milliseconds at the start.
the steps grow in size as the timescale of the evolution increases.
the same is true for other types of evolution -- the timesteps adapt to the timescales of interest according to user set limits.
3rd) there are large differences between mesa's implicit Lagrangian approach and the explicit Eulerian method you seem to have in mind.
confusion is inevitable until you get clear on this
4th) mesa isn't the right tool for all problems. you may well decide that your task is one that is better done using something else.
Good luck,
Bill

It doesn't make much sense to evolve MESA models with a timestep of
10^{-11} s. Perhaps you could use MESA to generate a series of stellar
models, and then treat everything as "frozen-in" on the short timescale
of interest for your problem.

If you're using the hydrodynamics capabilities, then there are CFL-like
controls, e.g.,
http://mesa.sourceforge.net/controls_defaults.html#dt_div_min_dr_div_cs_limit
but otherwise not. Remember that MESA does not timestep explicitly.
Best,
Josiah

MESA now uses an updated version (v1300) of the FGONG format, which uses more digits of precision for the data. Details are given in the attached notes made by Jørgen Christiansen-Dalsgaard. cheers, Rich > On Jun 21, 2017, at 7:18 AM, Warrick Ball <wb...@bi...> wrote: > > Hi Bruno, > > We can probably be more helpful if you're more specific about what you want to do.

Hi Bruno, We can probably be more helpful if you're more specific about what you want to do. As indicated in controls.defaults, details of the FGONG format are given by http://www.astro.up.pt/corot/ntools/docs/CoRoT_ESTA_Files.pdf The file itself is plain text.

Hi MESA users, We are going to study the behaviour of an external field during the evolution of star, therefore a second order equation of time and radius must be solved inside mesa code. The problem is that for the instability to be refused, " dt " must be about 10^(-11) seconds and the timesteps between mesa profiles are of order 10^(+15) seconds. Is it possible to study such a behaviour and apply the equation in mesa? Another question is about mesa mesh adjustment and the CFL number. How is the CFL number defined in mesa and which quantities does it relate, (dt,dr) or (dt,dm) ? Thank you in advance Best regards Zoe |

Hello everyone. Trying to manipulate the files of type profilexxx.data.FGONG wanted to know what routine I use to get (or extract) information from them. Forgive me over astero with MESA, it's my first attempt. Cheers, Bruno |

I just got a similar message. I think SourceForge is trying to prune the user lists by forcing a response from folks who want to remain, making getting off the list the default for no action. If you want to stay on mesa-users, click on the link.
