Notes. Ysurf and Zsurf are respectively the surface helium and heavy element mass fraction, is the ratio of heavy element to the hydrogen mass fractions, Teff is the effective temperature (K), L is the luminosity (in solar units), R is the radius (in solar units), Yini and Zini are respectively the initial helium and heavy element mass fractions, and αMLT is the mixing length parameter.
