Subsurface convection in a MS star
Calibration of mixing length parameter with these models
, from a
presentation by H.-G. Ludwig et al.
The
Yale group (F. Robinson et al.)
have done
similar work for the Sun on the MS and as a subgiant.
They show other interesting things:
Superadiabaticity in upper CZ comparing MLT with hydro
MLT with CM and Hydro - comparison of ML with depth
Bob Stein's simulations
show the downdraft nature of surface convection nicely:
Flyover of convective cells near surface - cool!
Our friends to the North (U. Minn) have carried out some
enormous calcluations of convection in whole-star models
