[mesa-users] Converging an AGSS05 Solar model

[Robert Farmer]

Hi

>initial_h1 =.0.6805
Hopefully that is just a typo in the file you sent but it should be: (you
have an extra .)
initial_h1 =0.6805

>Still, I can't get the correct surface abundances of 0.0165=z/x along with
L =1 and R=1.

How close do you get? Also what happens if you run from the pre-MS with
your chosen composition? In star_job set:

create_pre_main_sequence_model = .true.

You might want to look at and run the solar_calibration (takes a while to
run) with your choice of AGS05. This tries to make the "best" solar model
by tweaking the inputs, look for its vary_ options in
inlist_astero_search_controls and matching the model to the solar data.
