MESA model files, scripts, and opacity tables for: 'An Expanded Set of Los Alamos OPLIB Tables in MESA: Type-1 Rosseland-mean Opacities and Solar Models'

<p>MESA model files and plotting scripts, and opacity tables as seen in 'An Expanded Set of Los Alamos OPLIB Tables in MESA: Type-1 Rosseland-mean Opacities and Solar Models'.&nbsp;<br><a href="https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ad4355" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/ad4355</a><br><br>Models were run using MESA version r22.11.1, with fixes to the bugs documented at https://docs.mesastar.org/en/release-r24.03.1/known_bugs.html#r22-11-1.</p> <p>We use mesasdk-x86_64-linux-22.6.1.tar.gz &nbsp;sdk available at http://user.astro.wisc.edu/~townsend/resource/download/mesasdk<br><br><strong>OPLIB type-1 opacity tables are now available here, in MESA release version r24.08.1+, and at http://aphysics2.lanl.gov/opacity/lanl.</strong><br><br><strong>The splined tables are on a uniform grid whereas the raw tables are not. The splined tables also replaces nan edge values (at high temperatures) using interpolation. Modify the python spline script if you'd like to spline the opacities onto a different size grid.</strong>&nbsp;<br><br>*(In future solar modeling work, we recommend users use 'rmid' (cell centered radius in Rsun) instead of 'radius' (cell edge/face radius in Rsun) as all structural variables are typically defined at the cell center. Look into $MESA_DIR/star/defaults/profile_columns.list and ensure you are always consistently using cell centered or cell-faced variables with each other.)*</p>
