The modeling of microscopic diffusion in the Geneva evolution code

Patrick Eggenberger
Observatoire de Geneve, Switzerland

Abstract. In this contribution we briefly present the Geneva evolution code with a peculiar focus on the modeling of microscopic diffusion. The diffusion equations and the computation of the related diffusion coefficients and velocities are discussed as well as the numerical method used to solve these equations.
