Initial Goals:

Determine theoretical astrophysical conditions for AGB stars during the s-process.

Create reaction network for both ⁵⁶Fe and solar abundance seeds.

Create toolkit to read binary file into format appropriate for abundance graphing.

Modify xnet code to allow the definition of a time-dependent neutron flux.
