Abstract:
   We present detailed tabulations of two large grids of stellar models with 
   the initial chemical compositions [Y=0.240, Z=0.004] and [Y=0.250, Z=0.008],
   computed with the most recent radiative opacities (OPAL) by Iglesias et al.
   (1992). This paper continues the series initiated by Bressan et al. (1993) 
   for the grid with [Y=0.280, Z=0.020], the reference solar like abundances, 
   followed by Fagotto et al. (1994a) for the grids with compositions [Y=0.230,
   Z=0.0004] and [Y=0.352, Z=0.05]. The tracks span a wide range of initial 
   masses from 0.6M_{sun}_ to 120M_{sun}_ and extend from the zero age main 
   sequence (ZAMS) till very advanced evolutionary phases. Specifically, low- 
   and intermediate-mass stars are followed till the beginning of the thermally 
   pulsing regime of the asymptotic giant branch phase (TP-AGB), while massive 
   stars are followed till the core C-ignition. The models of low- and 
   intermediate-mass stars are calculated at constant mass, whereas
   those of massive stars are followed in presence of mass loss by stellar 
   wind incorporating a suitable dependence on the metallicity. The results 
   for all the models are given in extensive tables which summarize also the 
   lifetimes of the various phases and the variations of the surface abundances
   by dredge-up phenomena and mass loss by stellar wind. The salient features 
   brought by the different metallicity and helium content are briefly 
   outlined. In virtue of their large coverage of masses, evolutionary phases, 
   and chemical compositions, such grids of evolutionary tracks are basic to 
   studies of population synthesis. In particular they are suited to interpret 
   the CMDs of metal-rich globular clusters and of the typical stellar content
   of the Large Magellanic Cloud.
