[BPASS] Initial mass of NEWSEC models and Binary QHE Models #63

Closed RyotaInagaki1 closed 3 years ago

RyotaInagaki1 commented 4 years ago

How do I find the initial masses and separation of the primary star and the secondary star in the NEWSEC models and for the binary QHE models? Should I look at the filenames for indications of the primary mass and the secondary mass or should I look at row in the model grid corresponding to age=0 years? Also, are all binary QHE models listed in metallicities of hmg? Thank You, Ryota Inagaki

there should be no discrepancy btw the file names and age 0 - i would personally look at the latter because i can just call the columns for M1 and M2 :)

what do you mean by metallicities of hmg? the QHE metallicities are the same as the other BPASS models and the are in fractions of metal (Z) z020 : Z = .020 which is solar metallicity (roughly).

Please pardon me for some of my unclear wording. Please let me clarify. For the first question I wanted to find the initial masses of the primary and secondary (by that I mean something along the lines of zero age main sequence or pre-main sequence). As for the second question, I am wondering if all of the binary QHE models will be in the subdirectory for metallicity that have a suffix "hmg"
