Double meshpoints causing error?

Hi Rich

I also noticed it myself just now. The inlists I send you should be the ones used to produce the MESA profile and GYRE model.
I think the difference might be due to some extra options in the "run_star_extras" , but there are some methods used which are defined in other files, which I don't have on this computer right now. I'll check it out tomorrow when I have acces to the system used for my MESA runs.

Best regards

Hi Rich

Apparently, add_atmosphere is set to true internally, which explains the extra points in the surface layers.
Maybe I should set it to false for the post-MS models.

Hi Mathias --

Aha, you're running into a couple of bugs that we recently fixed in MESA. One bug adds on an atmosphere to the GYRE models, even when it isn't requested by the user; and the other causes mismatches between the atmosphere and the interior.

Both of these bugs are fixed in the latest release (9575) of MESA -- so, I'm afraid you'll have to upgrade to get a model that works OK.

cheers,

Hi Rich

Thanks for your help in figuring out the problem, I guess I'll upgrade soon.
Just to let you know, by setting "add_atmosphere_to_pulse_data" to false, the models that previously resulted in errors now seem to run correctly.
The GYRE model and MESA profile have the same amount of grind points, and the GYRE error message is gone.
I didn't check every calculated model, but the ones I checked run fine.

Best regards
Mathias
