Code | Garstec (A- Wess rev., 2015) |
Convection | MLT, alpha = 1.801 |
Overshoot | diffusion equation with exponential decay (Herwig type), including geometric limit applied to small convective cores (H_p towards the center makes overshoot regions too large). Proportion factor f = 0.02 (equivalent to 0.2 - 0.25 Hp in tradicional formulation) |
Extra mixing | Under the convective envelope (Vandenberg et al. 2012) as a function of its mass. Free parameters calibration forced to reproduce the solar Li and chemical abundances observed in globular clusters (e.g. Korn et al. en NGC 6397). |
gradT | Temperature gradient in overshoot regions is radiative. |
Wind | 1e-13 Msun / yr to avoid depletion of He and metals (included in extra missing calibration) |
Atmosphere | Eddington T-tau |
Nuclear rates | Adelberger et al. 2011, which includes de “low” value of LUNA's N14+p |
Screening | Weak (Salpeter)/intermediate (Graboske et al. 1973, subgiants) |
EOS | FreeEOS de Irwin |
Opacities | OPAL + Ferguson 2005 for low temperatures |
mDiffusion | For all chemical elements |
rLevitation | No |
