Three detailed console tutorials have recently been developed, and are now online at oklo.org.
Tutorial #1 steps through the basic features of the console, using the published radial velocity data-set for the Jupiter-like planet orbiting HD 4208.
Tutorial #2 takes a more detailed look at the console, and shows how to use periodograms and multiple-planet fitting to recover the three planetary companions (the so-called Fourpiter, Twopiter, and Dinky) orbiting Upsilon Andromedae.
Tutorial #3 tackles the tough problem of multiple-planet fitting in the presence of planet-planet interactions, and uses the console to explore the remarkable, recently published Gl 876 data set.
Would love to use the console but keep getting a java console message that the applet is not initialized. Here is the message:
————————————————-entered init

Have any ideas. Been working on a project and am able to recover the periods from the presented RV data but would also like to duplicate the orbital elements. Came across your console and would like to make use of it. But just will not run.
