Astronomical Python

An introduction to modern scientific programming

Over the past two decades, Python has become the de facto standard language of data science both in industry and astronomy (with the exception of simulations and other extreme scale computing problems). This course text is a full introduction to programming in Python with an explicit focus on astrophysical applications.

Autor

Imad Pasha is an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and PhD candidate at Yale University. Before Yale, he earned Bachelors degrees in Physics and Astrophysics from University of California, Berkeley, as well as a minor in Creative Writing. He worked as a reporter, senior editor, and photographer at The Daily Californian, the newspaper of record in Berkeley, CA. At Yale, his research has focused broadly on the processes driving galaxy evolution. He is interested in particular in how gas is accreted onto galaxies from the cosmic web, processed into stars, and (partially) expelled back out into the intergalactic medium, to be potentially later re-accreted.
