! history_columns.

list -- determines the contents of star history logs


! you can use a non-standard version by setting history_columns_file in your inlist
! units are cgs unless otherwise noted.
! reorder the following names as desired to reorder columns.
! comment out the name to omit a column (fewer columns => less IO => faster running).
! remove '!' to restore a column.
! if you have a situation where you want a non-standard set of columns,
! make a copy of this file, edit as desired, and give the new filename in your inlist
! as log_columns_file. if you are just adding columns, you can 'include' this file,
! and just list the additions in your file. note: to include the standard default
! version, use include '' -- the 0 length string means include the default file.
! blank lines and comments can be used freely.
! if a column name appears more than once in the list, only the first occurrence is used.
! if you need to have something added to the list of options, let me know....
! the first few lines of the log file contain parameter values as of the start of the run
! for completeness, those items are described here:
! initial_mass -- star mass at start of run (Msun units)
! initial_z -- starting metallicity
! h1_boundary_limit -- defines abundance limit for h1_boundary_mass
! he4_boundary_limit -- defines abundance limit for he4_boundary_mass
! burn_min1 -- 1st limit for reported burning, in erg/g/s
! burn_min2 -- 2nd limit for reported burning, in erg/g/s
! note: you can include another list by doing
!
include 'filename'
!
include '' means include the default standard list file
! the following lines of the log file contain info about 1 model per row

! you might want to get a more complete list of mixing regions by using the following
mixing_regions 40
!mixing_regions <integer> ! note: this includes regions where the mixing type is no_mixing.
! the <integer> is the number of regions to report
! there will be 2*<integer> columns for this in the log file, 2 for each region.
! the first column for a region gives the mixing type using the values defined in const_def
! the types are no_mixing, convective_mixing, overshoot_mixing, semiconvective_mixing,
! and salt_finger_mixing, numbered from 0 to 4.
! entries for extra columns after the last region in the star will have an invalid mixing_type
value of -1.
! the second column for a region gives the m/mstar location of the top of the region
! mstar is the total mass of the star, so these locations range from 0 to 1
! all regions are include starting from the center, so the bottom of one region
! is the top of the previous one. since we start at the center, the bottom of the 1st region is 0.
! the columns in the log file will have names like 'mix_type_1' and 'mix_qtop_1'
burning_regions 80
! misc
v_div_csound_surf ! velocity divided by sound speed at outermost grid point
!surface_accel_div_grav ! (v - v_old)/dt divided by GM/R^2 at outermost grid point
