[Mesa-users] Extreme helium stars

[Aaron Dotter]

Hi Abdel,

Your question is too broad for us to give you a complete answer.  If you
can ask a more specific question, you might have better luck.

For the evolution of white dwarfs you have a variety of options, including

- a number of test suite cases that involve white dwarfs;

- evolving a star from the pre-main sequence to the white dwarf phase

- there are is a suite of white dwarf models in
mesa/data/star_data/white_dwarf_models that you can use as a starting place.
