Grids of evolutionary tracks for the indicated values of Z and masses (in solar units). The sequences for 1.155 and 1.156 ℳ⊙ (dashed curves) and for 1.195 and 1.196 ℳ⊙ (solid curves) show how rapidly the morphology of the tracks changes near ﹩\mathstrut{\cal M} _{\mathrm{tr}\,}﹩ (see text). Although not plotted, both grids were extended down to 0.6 ℳ⊙.
