Are you an expert on a topic that we're not covering in the morning sessions? Would you like a chance to share this expertise with others during our afternoon unconference times? Feel free to list your name and your topic here, as well as what time during the week you'd like to break out. There is nothing else scheduled during the afternoon hack times, so feel free!

  • Your Idea Here. Your Name Here

Last years' breakouts:

Here are some of the breakouts that happened at last two Astro Hack Weeks.

  • Intro to profiling python. From a question during the intro session: "is it faster to do x*x or x**2?", answer: don't assume, profile! (John Parejko)

  • TOPCAT and STILTS let you load, explore, and visualize tables easily both through a GUI and on the command line. (Tina Peters)

  • Intro to Julia programming language. Could be a brief overview or a more in-depth tutorial. Kyle Barbary

  • Breakout on visualization with D3 and MPLD3 Jake VanderPlas

  • Demo / Intro to Astropy - same as above, could be a brief overview or more in-depth. Adrian Price-Whelan
