[Mesa-users] Need help in using MESA to simulate magnetised White Dwarfs.

[Surendra Bhattarai]

Hello everyone.

I am trying to simulate magnetized White Dwarfs using MESA. Previously, I
had studied the effect of magnetic fields on WDs using Cambridge
University's STARS code by incorporating the magnetic filed profile in EOS
modules. But in MESA, since it has a large documentation, I am a bit
confused about how to start in the first place.

After going through some documentation, I could get some idea that we need
to implement the relevant physics in run_star_extras file but I am not sure
if this is correct (since I found many such files there).

Also, I am thinking about whether we should implement the effect of
rotation also.

So, any help/suggestions are welcome, so that I can get some idea on how to
go forward.

Thanks,
Surendra Bhattarai
