| - | **Download, compile and run the Reaction Network Code** | + | - Make sure everyone got the pre-test done and correct. | 
| + | - Re-run the pre-test, reducing the temperature in the thermodynamic file | ||
| + | * Find the minimum temperatures at which silicon burning, oxygen burning and carbon burning occur. | ||
| + | - Grab a new (larger, 150 species) sunet_sn150.txt from the document server. | ||
| + | * Rename sunet_150.txt to sunet | ||
| + | * Build a new Data directory from REACLIB | ||
| + | * Create a new initial abundance file (matching the composition in the pretest) | ||
