We are developing a set of extendable, cross-platform tools and interfaces using Java and vector technologies such as SVG and SWF to facilitate element production calculations in computational astrophysics. The Java technologies are customizable and portable, and can be utilized as a stand-alone application or distributed across a network. These tools, which can have a broad applications in general scientific visualization, are currently being used to explore and compare various reaction rates, set up and run explosive nucleosynthesis calculations, and visualize these results with compact, high quality vector graphics. The facilities for reading and plotting nuclear reaction rates and their components from a network or library permit the user to include new rates and adjust current ones. Setup and initialization of a nucleosynthesis calculation is through an intuitive graphical interface. Sophisticated visualization and graphical analysis tools offer the ability to view results in an interactive, scalable vector graphics format, which leads to a dramatic reduction in visualization file sizes while maintaining high visual quality and interactive control. The use of these tools for other applications will also be mentioned.
