[mesa-users] instability strip definition (no MESA content)

Hi all,

(Sorry for the non-MESA request.  Too much expertise on this mailing list
to resist asking here!)

Does anyone have a favorite definition of the realm of the instability
strip in the H-R diagram?  There are lots of cartoons out there, most of
which are vague and/or conflicting.  I'm not aware of a solid theoretical
or empirical definition of the bounds of the IS in terms of Teff, surface
gravity, and/or luminosity.

Thanks,
Aaron
