Evolutionary tracks and isochrones for low- and intermediate-mass stars: From 0.15 to 7 $M_{\odot}$, and from $Z=0.0004$ to 0.03
Open accessAbstract
We present a large grid of stellar evolutionary tracks, which are suitable to modelling star clusters and galaxies by means of population synthesis. The tracks are presented for the initial chemical compositions , , , , (solar composition), and . They are computed with updated opacities and equation of state, and a moderate amount of convective overshoot. The range of initial masses goes from to , and the evolutionary phases extend from the zero age main sequence (ZAMS) till either the thermally pulsing AGB regime or carbon ignition. We also present an additional set of models with solar composition, computed using the classical Schwarzschild criterion for convective boundaries. From all these tracks, we derive the theoretical isochrones in the Johnson-Cousins UBVRIJHK broad-band photometric system.

“The resulting differences in the RGB temperatures are shown in Figure 9, where the RGBs of old (10 Gyr) isochrones from Cassisi et al. (solid lines) and from Padova (Girardi et al. 2000, dotted lines) are shown for three metallicties (Z⊙/200, Z⊙, 2 Z⊙, from left to right).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
