Now, if you found any of the stuff I threw at you useful, you have just

NadinB's just suggested something to me: I wonder if I can get a star to
go nova just by altering some of the parameters.......?

Cheers,

[Dennis] No thank you...I scare easily.


Hmm you may, but I don't think the program will let you

As an aside a friend of a friend of the family worked for NASA for a while
and taught stellar mechanics at UCSD until oh last Spring Semester.

Ed, pat yourself on the back. We showed him this tool, even suggested it as
a good TEACHING tool for students of stellar mechanics... yes there is such a
course in the catalogue

He was duly impressed.

And yes we did pick brain a tad... not much, it was dinner after all

;-)
