Rotating primordial stars



"Effects of rotation on the evolution of primordial stars"

Sylvia Ekström, Georges Meynet, Cristina Chiappini, Raphael Hirschi & André Maeder

2008 A&A 489: 685


In this directory, you will find the tracks corresponding to the paper mentionned above.

There are two types of files:

- the files beginning with a E contain all the data of a given evolutionary model from the arrival on the ZAMS to the pre-SN stage (see the columns description)
- the files beginning with a S contain all the data of the final structure of the models (see the column description).

The names of the different files give information on the model considered:

- the initial mass is indicated after the E or S
- after the letter V stands the initial equatorial velocity in km/s.
