[mesa-users] Possible numerical instability

[Aaron Dotter]

Hi Matwey,

You're likely running into a real challenge with stellar physics, rather
than MESA.  However, it's impossible to help you diagnose your problem
without more information.

Please try the following: save a model near where the problem occurs but
sufficiently far away that the model hasn't already arrived at logdt=-1.
 Verify that this model eventually dies at the same place as the run that
starts at the pre-MS.  Then, you can send us the saved model, your inlist,
and the last few lines from the terminal output.  This will make it possible
for us to understand what you're experiencing and then we may be able to
help you.

Best wishes,
Aaron
