[mesa-users] Do you know if anyone has made a grid of stellar models using MESA?

[Ehsan Moravveji]

Hi Steffen,
I cannot remember having seen a published uniform grid with MESA covering
very broad mass range, but I remember that the recent Geneva tracks
"coarsely" cover the whole HRD.
You may want to take a look at Ekstrom et al. (2012, A&A,
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2012A%26A...537A.146E).
Yet, I'm not so sure their mass stepsize is considered uniform in your case.

Best
Ehsan.
