Description
The atmospheric grid used in the paper is presented here. An example file name is "30_800_mh_+1.9_cto_0.1_kzz_9", where the name is formatted as "{T_int}_{T_eq}_mh_{metallicity}_cto_{C/O(solar)}_kzz_{log(Kzz)}". The T_int and T_eq values are the internal temperature and equilibrium temperature in Kelvin. Metallicity is log of the metallicity in units of solar metallicity. The C/O is the Carbon-to-Oxygen ratio in units of solar, where the assumed solar value is 0.458. The log(Kzz) is in cgs units (cm^2/s).
The columns of the file include pressure (bars), temperature (K), and volume mixing ratios of various gases. These models were generated using the PICASO atmospheric model (T(P) profiles) and the photochem 1D chemical kinetics model (chemistry).
