[Mesa-users] Mixing types

Dear all,

I've a question concerning the mixing types reported in the history 
file. According to the const_def.f90 file, the possible types are:

       ! mixing types
       ! NOTE: some packages may depend on the order
       integer, parameter :: no_mixing = 0
       integer, parameter :: convective_mixing = 1
       integer, parameter :: softened_convective_mixing = 2
          ! for modified D_mix near convective boundary
       integer, parameter :: overshoot_mixing = 3
       integer, parameter :: semiconvective_mixing = 4
       integer, parameter :: thermohaline_mixing = 5
       integer, parameter :: rotation_mixing = 6
       integer, parameter :: rayleigh_taylor_mixing = 7
       integer, parameter :: minimum_mixing = 8
       integer, parameter :: anonymous_mixing = 9

Is the "no_mixing" type reported for a particular zone equivalent to 
assume a radiative zone? If that weren't the case, how could I figure 
out which zone/s is/are radiative?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards,

Roque
