Hi
So the best place to find out what file prefixes are available is to look
at the data files themselves:

ls $MESA_DIR/data/eos*

You should see mesa, mesa-no-rad and macdonald as different prefixes, mesa
is the one described in the mesa papers, mesa-no-rad removes radiation and
macdonald is based on the MacDonald EOS code (MacDonald & Mullan 2012) (See
MESA II).
