Widget to illustrate the effect of parameters for radiative transfer models #30

Open dcorre opened 6 years ago

dcorre commented 6 years ago

It would be very illustrative and pedagogical to create a widget showing side by side a picture of the dust/star geometry, clumpiness of dust distribution, (others?) and the corresponding attenuation curve for a given dust type (i.e. extinction curve).

Is this a widget or a Juypter notebook?

dcorre commented 6 years ago

This is a widget in order to display in real time the attenuation curve for a given geometry. This could be used in a presentation to show the dependence of the attenuation curves to the optical depth, Rs/Rd, etc...

This could be inserted in a jupyter notebook. Regarding jupyter notebooks we could create a folder "notebooks" in dust_attenuation/ where we could add some tutorials.

Sounds like a plan then. Go for it if you have the time. :-)
