Glitch in Rotation Kernels

Hi Rich,
I calculated rotational kernels for a 3.8 Msun model, and realized that the mesh is scarce in a narrow part of the star, which is not the case for the rest of the model. Thus, the rotation kernels resemble a glitch in this narrow zone.
I have attached a figure showing two examples of this fake glitch, and also attach the input models. The x-axis is the relative radius.

Can you please help me resolve this?

Cheers
Ehsan.

Hi Ehsan --

Try uncommenting the alpha_osc and alpha_exp lines in the RESAMP_DISPERSION grid operation. Right now, that operation does nothing (because alpha_osc and alpha_exp revert to their default values of 0).

cheers,

Rich
