[Mesa-users] Units of use_other_torque

[Gehrman, Thomas Charles]

I have attached my inlist for the actual binary model with all equations I'm trying to model. I have also attached my approximation to this model using only the gainer star and one equation to simplify it. In each case my lg_dt~(-2) and retries and backups are implemented because it fails in angular momentum mixing which is found in the solve_omega_mix module in the star/private directory. The reason I asked about the units is because I believe my torques are large and MESA does a retry to a smaller time step to accommodate for it.


Thank you,


Thomas

Hi Gehrman, units are in CGS. If you're running into issues, you can also share your inlists/run_star_extras to better assess your problem.

Cheers

Hello all,


I have a simple question. For the use_other_torque found in the controls inlist are the units for extra_jdot in cgs or solar?


Thank you kindly,


Thomas
