Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Optical simulation showing in detail the coherent light wavefront reconstruction of a customized diffraction pattern from a 2021 shaped hologram
The method applied for this problem is described in this paper, and implemented in my diffraction simulator on Github

In a demonstration of Einstein’s E=mc2, collisions of light yielded electrons and positrons. Physicists are claiming the first direct observation of the long-sought Breit-Wheeler process, in which two particles of light, or photons, crash into one another & produce an electron & a positron.
I am trying to create a cellular automata based on electro-magnetism and see what happens if I add gravity to it. I found this repository that simulates EM and managed to add gravity to it just by adding a scalar field that averages itself over time with neighboring cells and making the gravity in a spot proportional to the difference of the G scalar field at that location relative to it's neighbors.
What are some alternatives?
