AETHRA RESEARCH ENVIRONMENT

Jupyter Research Lab

Learn Jupyter Notebook from zero, install it safely, and use it as a living research notebook for mathematics, physics, AI, signal processing, electronics, FPGA experiments, and AETHRA projects.

Beginner Tutorial

Start here if you have never used Jupyter. This tutorial explains notebooks, code cells, Markdown cells, running Python, and saving your work.

Install Command

For your Ubuntu/Linux machines, this is the simplest beginner install inside a Python virtual environment.

python3 -m venv ~/jupyter-env
source ~/jupyter-env/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install notebook jupyterlab matplotlib numpy pandas scipy sympy
jupyter lab

First Notebook

  • Create a folder called ~/notebooks.
  • Open JupyterLab and create a new Python notebook.
  • Name it first_experiment.ipynb.
  • Write one Markdown cell explaining the experiment.
  • Run one Python cell that prints or plots something.

Safety Rule

Never expose Jupyter directly to the public internet. Use it locally, through VPN/Tailscale, or behind secure authentication.

For your lab, the best setup is local Jupyter on your laptop plus private notebooks on your server/NAS.

Notebook Library

These cards open your notebook folders in JupyterLab in a separate browser tab, so they do not load inside the AETHRA iframe.

Mathematics

Algebra, calculus, linear algebra, proofs, symbolic math.

Physics

Mechanics, waves, electromagnetism, simulation.

Signals

FFT, SDR, filters, modulation, audio/RF analysis.

AI

PyTorch, datasets, embeddings, model testing.

Electronics

Circuits, sensors, measurements, lab notes.

FPGA

Verilog tests, timing, waveforms, register maps.

Robotics

ROS2, control, kinematics, sensor fusion.

AETHRA

SPQbit, Exbit, telescope, lab research archive.
