This is the Windows app named stellarics whose latest release can be downloaded as solar_ic_v5.tar.gz. It can be run online in the free hosting provider OnWorks for workstations.
Download and run online this app named stellarics with OnWorks for free.
Follow these instructions in order to run this app:
- 1. Downloaded this application in your PC.
- 2. Enter in our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 3. Upload this application in such filemanager.
- 4. Start any OS OnWorks online emulator from this website, but better Windows online emulator.
- 5. From the OnWorks Windows OS you have just started, goto our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 6. Download the application and install it.
- 7. Download Wine from your Linux distributions software repositories. Once installed, you can then double-click the app to run them with Wine. You can also try PlayOnLinux, a fancy interface over Wine that will help you install popular Windows programs and games.
Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.
stellarics
DESCRIPTION:
Cosmic ray electrons scatter on the photon fields around stars, including the sun, to create gamma rays by the inverse Compton effect. This program computes the spectrum and angular distribution of this emission.
The software also includes general-purpose routines for inverse Compton scattering on a given electron spectrum, for example for interstellar or astrophysical source modelling.

Features
- A program to compute inverse Compton scattering from the solar heliosphere. Can also be used for other stars, and includes general-purpose routines for inverse Compton scattering e.g. for interstellar emission. Package contains C++ routines, build instructions and description. Output is FITS table format, in various forms (spectra, profiles), and as idl commands. Includes inverse Compton energy loss routines for any given radiation field, including dE/dt and mean fractional energy loss, and checks against analytical formulae. Includes an option for a logarithmic grid in angle from the sun to better resolve the rapid variation near the sun while still maintaining the full angular range to 180 degrees. idl plotting output produces quality plots for all angles and energies. Included is a document with sample spectra and profiles, and a sample output FITS file.
