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.

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.

Simulation of the double slit experiment with incoherent light at three different time scales. As the field is averaged over a few microseconds, wave interferences disappear! [OC]
The simulations were done with the meep finite difference scheme, programmed in C++. The interface to the simulation was programmed with Python and its source code can be found here.

Simulation of incoherent light made solving Maxwell equations. As the field is averaged over a few microseconds, wave interferences disappear!
Thank you! The simulation interface and the plots are made with Python while the FDTD solver (MEEP) is implemented with C++ for speed. I uploaded the source code on GitHub.
I wrote this article explaining this phenomenon further and uploaded the source code here to make the simulations reproducible.
