[Mesa-users] MESA-Web moves to a new home

[RICHARD H D TOWNSEND]

Hi folks —

After a number of years of successful operation, the MESA-Web portal created by Carl Fields & Frank Timmes at Arizona State University will be discontinued at the end of September.

However, the good news is that the MadStAR (Madison Stellar Astrophysics Research) group here at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has re-implemented the MESA-Web portal, and are ready to accept new calculation requests. As part of this re-implementation, we’ve beefed up the computational resources a bit, so that calculations run faster; and, a greater number of calculations can be run concurrently.

To use the new MESA-Web, visit

If you’re planning on using MESA-Web for instruction in the fall, we recommend trying it out right away — there may be a few bugs lurking, and better to weed them out now than during classes!

Best wishes,

Rich & the MadStAR Team @ UW
