The theory and numerical simulation of non-local mixing-length convection.
Local convection theory makes the unphysical prediction that turbulent mixing terminates at the Schwarzschild stability boundary, and existing non-local convection theories have been criticized by Renzini (1987). Since the size of convecting cores bears upon stellar structure and evolution, a self-c...
