The class libraries here provide infrastructure for creating simulations of low energy nuclear physics experiments, as well as some useful working programs that do simple simulations and analysis of experiments performed with magnetic spectrographs.

This is a simulation package developed for numerical simulation of ultrashort pulse propagation in optical media and pulse generation from mode-locked lasers. Although the code is primarily intended for investigations of fiber links, fiber amplifiers and fiber lasers, it can be applied to any other setting for which the governing equiations are valid. The physics included in the code is based on a generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation, including higher order dispersion, stimulated Raman effect, gain with bandwidth limitation and saturation, loss, and saturable absorption. Disclaimer: The simulation code is provided free of charge for the use of the academic community only. We kindly ask the users to acknowledge use of the code in academic settings. We do not accept responsibility for any errors or omissions that may be present. Çağrı Şenel, Punya Prasanna Paltani, Fatih Ömer Ilday

PSI is an open-source program for computing molecular properties using high-accuracy, ab initio, quantum mechanical models.

Zgoubi is a raytracing code. Since 1972 it pushes charged particles through accelerators and beam lines, by stepwise solution of Lorentz force equation - and their spins via Thomas-BMT differential equation. Zgoubi simulates beam dynamics and polarization in a variety of accelerators (storage ring, synchrotron, cyclotron, betatron, microtron, FFAG, multi-pass ERL, etc) and optical systems (beam lines, magnetic and electrostatic optical components, time-of-flight and mass spectrometers, etc). The code includes built-in fitting procedures with a wide variety of constraints; stochastic SR energy loss; the tracking of synchrotron radiation (SR) Poynting vector; space charge models; various Monte Carlo procedures, etc. Contact: francoisgmeot@gmail.com Documentation (History of accelerators that zgoubi deals with, theory, tutorials): https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-59979-8 https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-16715-7, Chap. 14.

This application lets STM or AFM images AND molecular models to be overlaid. It is useful to understand how your molecules fit to what you observed and can help interpret your data. What makes this application more useful than paint programs (powerpoint or inkscape) is the fact that the size of the images and of the molecule is fixed, so that you know that you are working in real space. Check https://sourceforge.net/p/spm-and-mol-viewer/wiki/Home/ for updates.

NanoHive is a modular simulator used for modelling the physical world at a nanometer scale. The intended purpose of the simulator is to act as a tool for the study and development of nanotech entities. The project will also focus on the simulation of complex biological applications such as Targeted Drug Delivery by simulating nanowires, magnetic nanoparticles and others. Updates will follow from January 2017.

This program allows you to create a transmission hologram using just a computer, a laser-printer, and an overhead transparency. This hologram will behave like one created using a laser and can be projected or viewed with a point source.

Open Source MPS (OSMPS) is a collection of numerical routines for performing tensor network algorithms to simulate entangled, 1D many-body quantum systems. Our applications reach from ground state and excited states for statics to the dynamics of time-dependent Hamiltonians. We offer various time evolution methods with an emphasis on the support of long-range interactions through the matrix product state formalism. For more algorithms, see the list of features below. Please cite "M. L. Wall and L. D. Carr, New J. Phys. 14, 125015 (2012)" and "D. Jaschke, M. L. Wall, and L. D. Carr, Computer Physics Communications 225, 59–91 (2018)" if your publication involves OSMPS.

NanoCap is a generic application for the construction of low energy fullerene and capped nanotube structures. It provides an ideal tool to accompany the study of finite carbon molecules using computer simulation. The implementation involves a standalone application which includes a GUI and allows for dynamic visual inspection through 3D rendering. In addition, the NanoCap core libraries can be used in custom Python scripts that enabled the user to produce structures in bulk or to include the structure generation routines into pre-existing code.

PARAMESH is a package of Fortran 90 subroutines designed to provide an application developer with an easy route to extend an existing serial code which uses a logically cartesian structured mesh into a parallel code with adaptive mesh refinement(AMR).

Automated Quantitative Spectroscopic Analysis Combining Background Subtraction, Cosmic-Ray Removal and Peak Fitting programmed in LabVIEW. Current version 1.1.0. Binaries and source available.

Airfoil optimization using the highly-regarded Xfoil engine for aerodynamic calculations. Starting with a seed airfoil, Xoptfoil uses particle swarm, genetic algorithm and direct search methodologies to perturb the geometry and maximize performance. The user selects a number of operating points over which to optimize, desired constraints, and the optimizer does the rest.

This software allows you perform six degree of freedom simulations of High Power Rocket (HPR) and model rocket flights. Parachute descent is also simulated. 3D flight trajectories are produced as well as detailed tabular flight data. Running in Monte Carlo mode allows generates multiple possible flight paths and splash down plots, indicating the probability of landing in an area.
