Hi Rich,

It would be great to make it a part of MESA.
In the meanwhile have a good vacation.

Cheers
Marcin

This, requires an integration of radiative transfer codes (as William pointed out), where TLUSTY could be a choice. However, the run-time for such radiative transfer codes exceeds that of MESA by at least an order of magnitude. So, some tricks have to be employed, e.g. just to call it at some, not all steps.

So far the idea I have is to use the effective temperature of a star and the Planck formula for the blackbody approximation. But I guess this might not take into account 'real' energy emmited with some fotons during the evolution.

This would be relatively simple to implement in your run_star_extras.f if you wanted to output it at each step in history.log, too.
