Rmin (R) Minimum radius
Rb (R) Radius at core helium depletion
Rp (R) For low-metallicity models, radius at the peak of the first radius expansion
Δtp (kyr) For low-metallicity models, difference between the final stellar age and the time of the peak of the first radius expansion
RC ign. (R) Radius at core carbon ignition, when the luminosity of carbon exceeds 98% of the nuclear luminosity
Rmax (R) Maximum radius
Rf (R) Radius at the end of the simulation
(K) Effective temperature at the end of the simulation
Lf (L) Luminosity at the end of the simulation
