[mesa-users] TP-AGB stars

[zahra a. m. <zam...@ya...>]

Dear MESA developers , 


I have started a new research project recently. I want to use the MESA 
code for modelling the evolution of AGB stars. I wonder if the MESA code supports the input physics and factors that are important for evolution of stars in this epoch. In my modelling I need to include the followings:

1) convective coreovershooting: overshooting parameter should be set for different initial masses  

2) adopting parametrization which the third dredge up mixing of the stellar mantle as a result 
of the H-burning phase, and the enhanced luminosity of massive AGB stars undergoing Hot Bottom Burning (HBB).


3) molecular opacity 


4) predictions for dust production in the winds of LPVs  and the associated reddening.

5) predictions for the radial pulsation properties (period and mode)as a function of luminosity.
 
How can I find these aspects in the code? If they are not included in the MESA, Is it possible to add
 them?   

Best Regards,
