Cesam2k20

Cesam2k20 is the most recent version of the CESAM stellar evolution code.

The CESAM stellar evolution code was originally developed by Pierre Morel (1997, A&AS, 124, 597), encouraged by Evry Schatzman and Annie Baglin. Bernard Pichon, with many others, then participated in the development of a new version in modern Fortran: CESAM2k. These developments were presented in Morel & Lebreton (2008, ApSS 208, 316, 61-73). Angular momentum transport was added by João P. C. Marques (Marques et al., 2013, A&A, 549A, 74M) in the subsequent version: CESTAM. The next developments, results of significant collaborative efforts, are included in this new Cesam2k20 version.
