Projects
Please find below some of our projects related to software development, teaching resources, outreach activities and scientific events.
Software
We are currently developing python packages devoted to shock tracking and starburst heating for (magneto)hydrodynamical simulations.
Interactive Physics in Spanish
We are also committed to developing computational resources for teaching physics.
Our Research
These are our main projects. We develop physical models and software dedicated to solving problems in physics, astronomy and related sciences.
Home Institution
We are currently based @ the School of Physics and Nanotechnology @ Universidad Yachay Tech in Ecuador.
