Some preliminary ideas:

*) get GYRE and MESA to work together *without* having to regrid cell-centered quantities
*) look at what changes in a model when GYRE’s ‘regularization’ procedure seems to fix the mode-index problem
*) look at differences in eigenfunctions when a model produces pulsation results that depend on the pulsation formulation

I’m just about to embark on a 16-hour road trip, through a storm, in search of roast turkey. So, trying out any or all of these will have to wait until I get back on Sunday!

cheers,

Rich
