Colorful Plots

Over the last several days, when not plotting the usual squiggles, I've been working on making some visualizations of the "optical pumping" model in 2-D. I'm working up to 3-D but that will take a little while.... It's been pretty fun getting away from the usual. Compile data, sort data, plot data, replot and difference data, stare at data, scratch head, plot more data, etc... This time I actually get to do math and make neat figures!

I've got some decent "images" of the relevant variables in the "near-star" environment. I think the 3D versions should be pretty cool too...
