[Mesa-users] Test not terminating at the required phase

[Evan Bauer]

Hi Kim,

This output indicates that the model has reached the desired stopping condition:
stop because log_surface_luminosity <= log_L_lower_limit

The column for luminosity in the output also shows lg_L =  -1.004672

Can you clarify what seems to indicate that it has not reached the WD stage? Could this be an issue with your pgstar plots perhaps?

Cheers,
Evan

I did set  log_L_lower_limit = -1 in my the model (inlist_to_wd) but still, that also did not help. Also, my LOGS folder is empty. I am really worried about that.

Instead, it terminates at around the end of the thermally pulsing AGB phase (I think) when the log of the surface luminosity is around 3.5. I am not sure what I am missing? I set  log_L_lower_limit = -1 in the inlist_project file.
