Visualizing MESA Models with TULIPS - How to Python

Learn how to visualize MESA models using the Python package TULIPS in this informative webinar. Explore the powerful capabilities of TULIPS for creating stunning plots and animations that illustrate the evolution of stars throughout their lifetimes. Gain insights into tracking changes in temperature, radius, composition, and structure of stars with MESA models, which are essential tools for stellar researchers. Follow along as Dr. Eva Laplace from the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies demonstrates how to overcome the challenges of working with MESA models and simplify the visualization of complex stellar information. Download and install TULIPS before the presentation using the provided instructions. Basic Python knowledge is recommended, and attendees are encouraged to familiarize themselves with TULIPS beforehand.
