Transitory tidal heating events and their impact on cluster isochrones

MESA inlists and run_star_extras.f90 for simulating transitory tidal heating events (Arthur et al., 2024). Uses MESA version r15140 and MESA SDK version x86_64-linux-20.12.1.

inlist_start: evolve a low-mass star to ZAMS

inlist_after_zams: evolve a low-mass star from ZAMS to 3.95 giga years (age of M67 cluster)

inlist_near_tams: add heating to the stellar envelope using heating rates from TIDESnnv models

run_star_extras.f90: envelope heating routine interpolating TIDESnnv models.

Inlists and run_star_extras.f90 were adapted from MIST resources (Choi et al., 2016; Dotter et al 2016) and use tailored convection parameters described in these works. Available from https://waps.cfa.harvard.edu/MIST

Heating rates come from tailored TIDESnnv (Tidal Interactions with Dissipation of Energy due to Shear version nvv) models.
