Specify Metal Scale (Solar Abundance) Used in C.1. #12

Closed farr closed 6 years ago

farr commented 6 years ago

The referee writes

The medalist scale of the models is not mentioned in Section C.1. I.e., what solar metallicity and abundance mixture was assumed? Grevesse & Sauval (1998), Asplund et al. (2009)? Please specify. The difference is enough to cause a large effective change in Z/X and hence deduced stellar properties.

Tom, can you clarify?

Hi,

The answer is Grevesse & Noels 1993 as described in Rodrigues et al 2017 (i.e., the PARAM paper).

Thanks, Guy! Updated the text, and will close the PR momentarily.
