In the folder numerical-methods there are exercises for a course in numerical methods for astronomy.

Otherwise, in no specific order there are small code projects done either for a university class or for fun.

A couple of recent interesting ones:

  • sounds_of_spectra/converter.py converts the energies of the spectral series of Hydrogen to notes (by shifting down by several octaves), in the same folder one can find a Musescore score and an mp3 synthesized version of it.
  • spectral_line_finder.py takes an observed spectrum of a certain unknown ion and queries the Nist database of spectral lines to guess what ion it is.
  • fractals/mandelbrot.py generates fractals (despite the name, also Julia fractals, not just the Mandelbrot set). A sample render is fractals/pictures/high_res_plasma.pdf.
  • Bayes vs frequentist.ipynb does the simulation from this video.
