This paper reports the development of TOUCANS, a new Monte Carlo neutron transport code fully written using the Geant4 toolkit. It aims at modeling complex systems easily and rapidly, thanks to a simple key-value input file. While its main…
We describe a Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of QCD-instanton induced processes in deep-inelastic scattering (HERA). The QCDINS package is designed as an ``add-on'' hard process generator interfaced to the general hadronic…
We present ADerrors.jl, a software for linear error propagation and analysis of Monte Carlo data. Although the focus is in data analysis in Lattice QCD, where estimates of the observables have to be computed from Monte Carlo samples, the…
We introduce a Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation and data analysis package for the cosmological computation package Cmbeasy. We have taken special care in implementing an adaptive step algorithm for the Markov Chain Monte Carlo in order…
In this paper, we present resolvent4py, a parallel Python package for the analysis, model reduction and control of large-scale linear systems with millions or billions of degrees of freedom. This package provides the user with a friendly…
We have developed MGGPOD, a user-friendly suite of Monte Carlo codes built around the widely used GEANT (Version 3.21) package. The MGGPOD Monte Carlo suite and documentation are publicly available for download. MGGPOD is an ideal tool for…
This paper explores how far the scientific discovery process can be automated. Using the identification of causally significant flow structures in two-dimensional turbulence as an example, it probes how far the usual procedure of planning…
The Monte Carlo (MC) setups used by ATLAS to model boson$+\mathrm{jets}$ and multi-boson processes at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV in proton-proton collisions are described. Comparisons between data and several event generators are provided for key…

We present a novel Python tool for the analysis of Geant4 simulations that enhances our understanding of coherent phenomena occurring during the interaction of charged particles with crystal planes. This tool compares the total energy of…
DPMJET is a Monte Carlo model for sampling of hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus, nucleus-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus interactions at accelerator and Cosmic Ray energies according to the two-component Dual Parton Model. Here we describe new…
A new release of the Monte Carlo program Herwig++ (version 2.3) is now available. This version includes a number of improvements including: the extension of the program to lepton-hadron collisions; the inclusion of several processes…
This paper provides guidance to an analyst who wants to extract insight from a spreadsheet model. It discusses the terminology of spreadsheet analytics, how to prepare a spreadsheet model for analysis, and a hierarchy of analytical…
The Physics Analysis eXpert (PAX) is an open source toolkit for high energy physics analysis. The C++ class collection provided by PAX is deployed in a number of analyses with complex event topologies at Tevatron and LHC. In this article,…
