[Mesa-users] Varying radiative opacity

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to vary the radiative opacity leaving the conduction opacity
fixed in r12778.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to do this?

I noticed the option opacity_factor in the controls but I am unsure what
this scales. Currently, I have include_electron_conduction = .true. so my
suspicion is that it will multiply the sum of the conduction and radiative
opacities.

Is there any way to just scale the radiative opacities?

Cheers,

Jeremy
