Codes and MESA files used in the publication "The Energy Sharing Timescale in an Analytic Framework for Common Envelope Hydrodynamics"

This repository contains MESA files and additional data for the paper “The Energy Sharing Timescale in an Analytic Framework for Common Envelope Hydrodynamics” by R.W. Everson, M. MacLeod, and E. Ramirez-Ruiz (2024). arXiv:2410.07036

For solar metallicity models, we adapt the inlists and run_star_extras developed for the MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) package (Dotter 2016; Choi et al. 2016)

The repository contains:

Adapted MIST files for solar metallicity models, for use with MESA r7503 : EST_MIST.zip

MESA files for low metallicity models, for use with MESA r10398 : EST_MESA_lowZ.zip

Output data from MESA and 3D FLASH (Fryxell et al 2020) models and plotting code notebook required for parameter space plots : EST_PLOTS.zip
