Companion to “Introduction to the Interstellar Medium” by Jonathan Williams

Recreate figures from the textbook and use the code as starting points for some of the questions. Most figures are created in python as jupyter notebooks that you can download and use as starting points for problem sets in the book or for further investigation. Line drawings are created in tikz which require downloading the tex file and running ‘pdflatex’. A remaining few others were created in keynote and are only available here as pdf. Use the command or control key when clicking on a link to open it in a new tab.
