Princeton University Princeton Institute for Computational Science and Engineering Hand On Session
yt: Astrophysical-Aware Analysis and Visualization
After the talk, 2-4pm, there will be a hands-on session with Matt on how to use yt in practice. If you are interested in using this tool, please consider attending the hands-on session, and bring your laptop. ABSTRACT (for the technical session): During the 2:00–4:00 PM “deep-dive” into yt, we’ll cover installing yt on a cluster, getting started analyzing datasets from a code that yt understands, and then move on to simple analysis and plotting, leading up to very simple volume rendering and quantitative plots. Finally, we’ll discuss very briefly how to load data from other codes
into yt, and the restrictions on what types of data yt is currently able to handle.
