[mesa-users] solar calibration with Asplund abundances

[Jean-Claude P. <jc...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had tried a solar calibration but with the Asplund abundances. I gave it a try and found the following accuracies:

1% in Teff,
5% in L,
2% in Rcz.

Comparing with Serenelli et al. (2009):
http://esoads.eso.org/abs/2009ApJ...705L.123S

these results are consistent in terms of Rcz, and better regarding the He surface abundances (here Ysurf = 0.2477). I used MESA version 5595 (inlists and output attached).

Has anybody tried to do the same thing and found better accuracies?

Cheers,

JC
