Scientific paper

We calculate models of the Sun possessing a layer of convective overshoot at the base of their outer convection zones. There is a small effect on the overshoot layer from the change in the equation of state. A conspicuous decrease of the layer thickness arises from the replacement of the Los Alamos opacity tables by tables from Lawrence Livermore. For the calculated models the thickness lies between 0.13 and 0.19 of a pressure scale height. We also propose a model with a smoothed transition from the overshoot layer to the radiative core, obtained by a limitation of the temperature excess of the convection eddies.
