Example Script
AMUSE comes with a set of examples scripts, you can find these in the example directory of the source-code and as part of the documentation here.
Simple Examples
The simple examples try to show how to do one specific thing with AMUSE (usually with one code).
| Example | Description |
| salpeter | Create a initial mass distribution following the Salpeter IMF and plot it. Compare the created distribution with the Salpeter initial mass function. Shows how to make scatter and log/log plots. |
| cluster | Create a plummer sphere and evolve it for several nbody time units (all attributes in nbody units). |
| hydro_star | Evolve a star in a stellar evolution code (Evtwin or Mesa) and convert the star model to a SPH model |
| hrdiagram | Evolve a star in a stellar evolution code and create Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (temperature against luminocity of a star) |
| sunandearth | Evolve a system of particles with the sun and earth in a gravitational dynamics code. |
| pythagorean | Calculate the Pythagorean problem, show the influence of the timestep parameter on the solution. |
| galactic_center | Evolve a cluster rotating around the galactic center. Shows how to evolve a model with an external constant gravity field |
| kelvin_helmholtz | Evolve a Kelvin Helmholtz instabilty in 2d using a grid based hydrodynamics code |
