THE NETWORK GENERATOR TUTORIAL

3. How to plot a reaction rate> 3a. First step: go to Plot Individual Reaction Rate.

select the bibliographic index:
- for reactions from NACRE:
- for reactions not in NACRE:
type in the reaction

Click on the button 'Plot reaction rate'

Proceed to step 3b below

Here is a screen copy of the form corresponding to step 3a.

II. Individual reactions

Enter Reaction (Click here for help):

Bibliographic index (1 = default = most recent rate):
+

V
+

First construct the network by clicking on Add reaction to network,
the button Compute reaction rate will appear in the next form.

3b. Second step: Select the temperature range.

Then click on the button 'Plot the reaction rate'.

Results are shown in step 3c.

Here is a screen copy of the form corresponding to step 3b:

Request from: astrohp9.ulb.ac.be (164.15.125.46)

Please send comments and suggestions to ajorisse%astro.ulb.ac.be

List the current network

Provide temperature grid:
Minimum Temperature (in units of 10⁸ K: T₈ > 0.01):
Maximum Temperature (in units of 10⁸ K: T₈ < 10.0):
Number of grid points (max. 250):

3c. Results:

The plot of the reaction rate is stored in gif and postscript formats in files named 'VtmpIP_address.ps' and 'VtmpIP_address.gif' in http://www-astro.ulb.ac.be/tmp. An example is Vtmp164.15.125.46.gif
The client IP_address is given here.

N_Av^(N-1) < sigma v > [(cm³mole^-1)^(N-1) s^-1, where N (>1) refers to the number of particles in the entrance channel]
or
lambda [s^-1] for beta-decays, electron captures, or photodesintegrations
