[Mesa-users] Question about modelling a star with neutron star at its core

[Sushovan Mondal]

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your kind response. I have gone through the emails and it
will help me a lot. As I am very new to MESA, so I have a very trivial
doubt about the working process of MESA. I think there are various options
available in the default files, and if I want to change those values then I
have to make inlists to include those changes (otherwise the model will
take the default values). Is this the way the process works? If I am wrong,
please correct me. Is there any tutorial available for beginners? Though
this is a very basic question, it will help me to understand the process
better.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Sushovan
