[Mesa-users] Atmosphere for Very Small Tau

[Francis Timmes]

it can be useful to search the archives at https://lists.mesastar.org/pipermail/mesa-users/ 
for similar topics or questions. in this case, 

https://lists.mesastar.org/pipermail/mesa-users/2015-January/004610.html

looks promising. translating to the current public version r01018, try putting

! atmosphere
      set_to_this_tau_factor = 0.01
      set_tau_factor = .true
      set_initial_tau_factor = .true.

in your &star_job specifications.
