[Mesa-users] Question about magnitudes in RSP

[Jeremy Sakstein]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to get MESA to output the V and I band magnitudes for RSP to
the history file. I found these in the history_columns.list:

log_lum_band V
log_lum_band I

but after grepping that is the only place I find them. When I plot them for
the Cepheid RSP test_suite case I get numbers of order 36 for both. I was
expecting numbers around -3.5 with variations of order 0.5. At leads this
is what seems to be the case for this paper:
https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2041-8205/768/1/L6/pdf, which I
think studies the same star.

Can someone tell me precisely what these quantities are? And how they are
related to the quantities in this paper.

Cheers,

Jeremy
