   Single, stable neutron star
+  <p>This simulation shows how to evolve a stable, single neutron star. It uses a TOV solution
+     as initial data and follows the initial (numerical) perturbations, writing the maximum
+     density to disk. What can be seen is that the oscillates for a few cycles (only very
+     slitely because the solution is stationary and the induced numerical perturbation is small),
+     before numerical errors due to the lack of resolution spoil the results. The size of this
+     simulation is intentionally kept as small as possible, thus the resolution is about as low
+     as youcan go without loosing any confidence in at least quantitatively correct results.
+     It is intended to be used as quick examples in lectures, workshops or summer schools where
+     both time and computational power are typically scarce.</p>
