Tutorials

The tutorials are Jupyter notebooks in the tutorials/ folder of the repository. Most need downloaded model data: start with Tutorial 0.

Setup

Notebook	What it teaches
Tutorial 0: Data Setup and Environment Verification	check the installation, the filter lists, and download the data files

Models and priors

Notebook	What it teaches
Tutorial 1: Individual Star Models	predict stellar parameters and SEDs along evolutionary tracks, with binaries and extinction
Tutorial 2: Stellar Population Models	build isochrones and synthetic star clusters
Tutorial 3: Model Grids and Performance	generate, load and inspect model grids and their reddening coefficients
Tutorial 4: Galactic Priors and Models	evaluate and combine the Galactic, dust and parallax priors

Fitting

Notebook	What it teaches
Tutorial 5: Fitting Individual Stars with BruteForce	fit individual stars with BruteForce
Tutorial 6: Cluster Analysis	fit the cluster M67 with an isochrone, binaries and MCMC
Tutorial 7: 3D Dust Mapping	fit dust clouds along a line of sight to stellar posteriors
Tutorial 8: Photometric Calibration	compute and apply photometric offsets

Utilities and results

Notebook	What it teaches
Tutorial 9: Utility Functions	convert photometry, evaluate likelihoods and sample with brutus.utils
Tutorial 10: Plotting Functions	draw the figures of brutus.plotting
Tutorial 11: Working with BruteForce Results	read, check and summarize the output file of a fit
