Daniel ProbstIn case you've been wondering what a molecule looks like from the inside—at least a rendered one. ;-)
Viktor Tokariev 🇺🇦@skepteis let me guess: electron density isosurface?
@victor_tokarev It's based on the van der Waals radii. :-)
Simon Frei@skepteis What tool/library did you use for the viz?
@imsodin My own to up to writing out a .ply file and then just opened it in meshlab du take a snapshot
@skepteis Yep meshlab was what I was interested in, thanks.
Just a passing curiosity as my last "scientific" foray included creating and visualising similar structures. Well, not really in terms of subject, but in terms of visualisation (that were generic structures trying to mimic snow microstructures, where I used pyvista/VTK for viz).

@imsodin Cool! Do you have it online somewhere?
@skepteis Nothing online. My supervisor was talking about publicating something for quite a while, but it never happened. Not too unhappy given my code "quality" as I remember it. Just dug up the old files, and also comparing the visualisations to yours is... a stretch to put it mildly, as you can see :)
The cool viz. in my group were time-series of CTs of real snow - though the examples here aren't that great quality: https://www.slf.ch/en/snow/snow-as-a-material/snow-metamorphism.html

@imsodin that's pretty cool though 👍🏻👍🏻 and for code quality in publications, well, the bar is quite low there 😉
@skepteis Thanks.
I know - I was quite surprised when I checked out when "publication" got first mentioned as a possibility. However I switched careers, code quality is now what it all is (or at least should be) about :)
