The absorption and emission of light by exoplanet atmospheres encode details of atmospheric composition, temperature, and dynamics. Fundamentally, simulating these processes requires detailed knowledge of the opacity of gases within an…
PyMieDAP (the Python Mie Doubling-Adding Programme) is a Python--based tool for computing the total, linearly, and circularly polarized fluxes of incident unpolarized sun- or starlight that is reflected by, respectively, Solar System…
SWIFTGalaxy is an open-source astrophysics module that extends SWIFTSimIO to analyses of particles belonging to individual galaxies simulated with SWIFT. It inherits from and extends the functionality of SWIFTSimIO's SWIFTDataset class. It…
Fostered by upcoming data from new generation observational campaigns, we are about to enter a new era for the study of how galaxies form and evolve. The unprecedented quantity of data that will be collected, from distances only marginally…
The positron excess measured by PAMELA and AMS can only be explained if there is one or several sources injecting them. Moreover, at the highest energies, it requires the presence of nearby ($\sim$hundreds of parsecs) and middle age…
Fitting the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of galaxies is an almost universally used technique that has matured significantly in the last decade. Model predictions and fitting procedures have improved significantly over this time,…

Understanding electron drift and diffusion in gases and gas mixtures is a topic of central importance for the development of modern particle detection instrumentation. The industry-standard MagBoltz code has become an invaluable tool during…
The Python library FatGHol FatGHoL used in Murri2012 to reckon the rational homology of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces is an example of a non-numeric scientific code: most of the processing it does is generating graphs (represented by…
One of the few ways that we can understand the environment around dusty stars and how much material they contribute back to the Universe, is by fitting their brightness at different wavelengths with models that account for how the energy…
Earth system models (ESMs) are vital for understanding past, present, and future climate, but they suffer from legacy technical infrastructure. ESMs are primarily implemented in Fortran, a language that poses a high barrier of entry for…
