This set of lessons teaches you how to manipulate data, plot it, analyse it and draw conclusions from it. Two software packages are used: Excel (or another spreadsheet such as iWork Numbers), and Python (with the numerical python and matplotlib packages). Some tasks can be done in either, while some require the greater power of Python. Reference Guide for Python Data Handling . Back to Main Lab Skills Page .

... The absolute magnitude of the RCBs in the LMC and the small number of Galactic RCBs implies that they are very rare stars. Together with statistics for related stars, the total number of hydrogen-deficient stars in the Galaxy is estimated to be about 1000. Whilst the luminosity of RCBs is similar to that of other low-mass stars as they evolve rapidly from the asymptotic RED GIANT branch to become WHITE DWARFS , their frequency is much lower. ...
