[Mesa-users] runaway mass transfer in WD-WD binary

[twong31 at physics.ucsb.edu]

Hi Kareem,

What is the mass transfer rate when you run into this issue?

The mass transfer should be stable like you said, so I think the problem
may have to do with the Newton solver. Does
setting use_dedt_form_of_energy_eqn = .false. (and use_eps_mdot = .false.)
help?

Hope this helps,
Sunny
