Pre-pic and plot density profile of a gas jet

Pre-pic and plot density profile of a gas jet

To run, python prepic_density.py. To generate the corresponding jupyter notebook, we use jupytext.

To generate a jupyter notebook from a Python script, do:

jupytext prepic_density.py --to ipynb

One then has to delete the original Python script, which will be re-generated by Jupyter.
