[Mesa-users] Question about neutrino loss rates

[Rob Farmer]

Hi,

>Hi everyone, just a follow up on this. Going through
neu/private/mod_def.f90 it looks like I actually want
sources(plas_neu_type, ineu) for the plasma loss rate.

Yes, you want "ineu" to get the rate, the other elements in the second
column are the derivatives.

>If so, will the units be ergs/g/s?

As per the comment in neu_def.f90:

integer, parameter :: ineu        = 1     ! loss rate (nonnegative) in
units of ergs / gram / second

>after calling neu_get appropriately.

As long as you pass the flags array with:

flags(plas_neu_type)=.true.
