(1) Primary data files, stages.zz These files give data for the calculation of radiative accelerations, GRAD, for elements with nuclear charge zz. Data are available for zz=06, 07, 08, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 25, 26 and 28. Calculations are made using data from the Opacity Project (see papers SYMP and IXZ). The data are given for each ionisation stage, j. They are tabulated on a mesh of (T, Ne, CHI) where T is temperature, Ne electron density and CHI is abundance multiplier. The files include data for ionisation fractions, for each (T, Ne). The file contents are described in the paper ACC and as comments in the code add.f (2) Code add.f This reads a file stages.zz and creates a file acc.zz giving radiative accelerations averaged over ionisation stages. The code prompts for names of input and output files. The code, as provided, gives equal weights (as defined in the paper ACC) to all stages. Th weights are set in SUBROUTINE WEIGHTS, which could be changed to give any weights preferred by the user. The dependence of diffusion coefficients on ionisation stage is given by a function ZET, which is defined in SUBROUTINE ZETA. The expressions used for ZET are as given in the paper. The user can change that subroutine if other expressions are preferred. The output file contains values, ZETBAR, of ZET, averaged over ionisation stages. (3) Files acc.zz Radiative accelerations computed using add.f as provided. The user will need to run the code add.f only if it is required to change the subroutines WEIGHTS or ZETA. The contents of the files acc.zz are described in the paper ACC and in comments contained in the code add.f. (4) Code accfit.f This code gives gives radiative accelerations, and some related data, for a stellar model. Methods used to interpolate data to the values of (T, RHO) for the stellar model are based on those used in the code opfit.for (see the paper OPF). The executable file accfit.com runs accfit.f. It uses a list of files given in accfit.files (see that file for further description). The mesh used for the abundance-multiplier CHI on the output file will generally be finer than that used in the input files acc.zz. The mesh to be used is specified on a file chi.dat. For a test run, the stellar model used is given in the file 10000_4.2 (Teff=10000 K, LOG10(g)=4.2) The output file from that test run is acc100004.2. The contents of the output file are described in the paper ACC and as comments in the code accfit.f. (5) The code diff.f This code reads the output file (e.g. acc1000004.2) created by accfit.f. For any specified depth point in the model and value of CHI, it gives values of radiative accelerations, the quantity ZETBAR required for calculation of diffusion coefficients, and Rosseland-mean opacities. The code prompts for input data. It creates a file recording all data calculated. The code diff.f is intended for incorporation, as a set of subroutines, in codes for diffusion calculations.
