Benjamin Walter Keller

Benjamin Walter Keller is currently a PhD candidate at McMaster University and gained his BSc in physics with a minor in computer science from the University of Calgary in 2011. His current research involves numerical modeling of galaxy evolution over cosmological timescales. As an undergraduate at the U of C, he worked on stacking radio polarization to examine faint extragalactic sources. He also worked in the POSSUM Working Group 2 to determine the requirements for stacking applications for the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope. He is particularly interested in questions involving stellar feedback (supernovae, stellar winds, and so on) and its impact on galaxies and their surrounding intergalactic medium.

Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to add lines, boxes, texts, different kinds of shapes, and polygons, as well as arrows in descriptions with annotate. We also focused on the viewer's attention on whatever kinds of data the plot is showing to make the insights.

In the next chapter, we will learn about special-purpose plots, which you can use for different kinds of data that haven't fallen into the sorts of plots we've seen so far.
