Last minute studying

(I have added more stuff)

Dear Classmates,

Here are all the notes that I have been writing throughout the class. Some of them include helpful simulations and diagrams.
Hopefully this will help.

You should be able to open PDF versions in the browser (just click on it). Other formats files will need to be downloaded.

CDF file will open with wolfram CDF player. It is free. Here is a link
.nb file will open with mathematica.


Evolution of post-main sequence star. (This is not perfect. I might have mistakes. Check it out if you are completely lost, like i was a day ago.)
Star Evolution
Death Of Stars

Important! How to calculate flux and luminosity form blackbody equation (plank's equation). PLUS Some equations that are not in the equation sheet, and other short notes about calculating mass in binary and radial velocities.
