[mesa-users] MESA code Questions!!

The other models, I've seen from lanl pulsation codes are using Burgers' diffusion treatment as implemented by cox et al.(1989) and nuclear reaction rates from Angulo et al.(1999) with correction to the N14 rate from FOrmicola et al.(2004)

-I'm trying to mirror these abundance models through MESA by using unreleased Opacity tables 

does this provide any info?

What physics do you think will cause them to change?
