For an internship at Keele University during Summer 2024, I was given the opportunity to use MESA to simulate the evolution of 20 solar mass stars. The purpose was to investigate the effects of changing the convection theorem used (time-independent compared to time-dependent convection) in 1D using mixing length theory.
This repository contains the LaTeX files and output for the report I wrote detailing what I did during the internship.
Please note, the work is licenced under the licence within the LICENCE.md
file. However, there are works created by others, but these are referenced either within the main output file, main.pdf
, or in their respective files (such as the bibliography style file aa.bst
.
If you're interested in learning more, I've given two presentations (one shorter, to students and researchers at Keele University, and one longer, to members of Altrincham and District Astronomical Society) both available on YouTube.
