Playing Along With These Notes

These notes are a collection of Jupyter notebooks. You can download them and work through them on your own laptop or run them in the cloud (e.g., with Google Colab):

Working on your own computer

Clicking on the icon in the upper right let’s you download the raw notebook so you can run it on your local computer.

You’ll need to install pynucastro and mesa_reader. This can be done via pip as:

pip install pynucastro mesa_reader

Using Google Colab

Clicking on the icon in the upper right (on pages that are notebooks) will allow launch the notebook directly in the cloud.

As with the local install, you’ll need pynucastro and mesa_reader. These can be installed from within Colab by executing

!pip install pynucastro mesa_reader

(note the !) in a cell.

Some of the notebooks need data files. These can be uploaded by selecting the icon on the vertical menu bar on the left:
