This code performs a simulation experiment that involves (i) drawing random numbers from the normal distribution, (ii) resampling elements from arrays with replacement, and (iii) computing various quantities like mean, standard deviation, etc. Further information is available in section 4 of FERMILAB-FN-1273-ETD [https://inspirehep.net/literature/2925453].
ARCANE reweighting is a Monte Carlo technique for tackling the negative weights problem in simulations in high energy physics. The technique works by redistributing (via an additive reweighting) the contributions of different pathways within an event generator that lead to the same final event. The technique is exact and does not introduce any biases in the distributions of physical observables. This repository contains the code and data associated with a demonstration of ARCANE reweighting, for the generation of $e^+ e^- \longrightarrow q\bar{q} + 1\,\mathrm{jet}$ events at next-to-leading-order accuracy in perturbation theory. ARCANE reweighting was shown to almost completely eliminate the negative weights problem for this process.
NuFast is designed to calculate all nine neutrino oscillation probabilities in matter for long-baseline accelerator (e.g. NOvA, T2K, DUNE, HK) and reactor experiments (e.g. JUNO) very quickly, using the algorithms optimized for realistic oscillation scenarios. NuFast is provided in Fortran, C++, and Python, although no particular guarantees are made that the Python code is "fast".
This project demonstrates, for the first time, the application of simulation-based inference (SBI) techniques to tune neutrino–nucleus interaction models. Using a mock dataset based on the MicroBooNE tuning of the GENIE event generator, our approach employs a Neural Posterior Estimator (NPE) with Masked Autoregressive Flows (MAF) to infer the posterior distributions of key GENIE parameters directly from simulated histograms. The workflow provides a scalable and amortized framework for performing likelihood-free inference in high-dimensional parameter spaces, offering a pathway to more efficient and uncertainty-aware model tuning for next-generation neutrino experiments such as DUNE and SBND.
OptiMX is a GUI-oriented program with principal aim to be an easy to use, yet comprehensive, interactive accelerator optics design and analysis tool. It was originally developed starting in the 1990s as an MS Windows centric application using the commercial Borland OWL framework. In the spring of 2014, a decision was made to port OptiM to Qt, a modern, portable and open framework. As much as possible, the original interface was preserved.While a significant amount of refactoring was required, the underlying physics has been for the most, left unchanged. The custom plots of the original application have been replaced with functional equivalents based on a stable and well-established library (qwt). With very few minor exceptions the new refactored OptiMX should be a drop-in replacement for the original OWL version.
A Python project for calculating (binomial) efficiencies and their uncertainties. The mathematical theory and derivation of the formulas can be found in FERMILAB-TM-2286-CD. If you use this software for published work, please cite this note. The default algorithm for finding the shortest interval is based on Hyndman, R. J. (1996). Computing and graphing highest density regions, The American Statistician, 50(2), 120-126.
This code trains a simulation-based inference (SBI) model for neutrino interaction parameter tuning and subsequently evaluates its performance on MicroBooNE, T2K, and NuWro datasets.

static-subid calculates predictable subordinate UID and GID ranges for Linux users based on their UID, ensuring consistent ID mappings across multiple systems. Unlike shadow-utils' sequential allocation (which depends on creation order), static-subid uses a deterministic formula that guarantees the same user UID always receives the same subordinate ID range. Subordinate IDs enable user namespaces for unprivileged container runtimes (Podman, Docker rootless mode, LXC) by mapping container UIDs/GIDs to host subordinate IDs without requiring root privileges.

Rhythm is a small Python framework that automates Cadence Spectre simulations from the command line. Instead of creating an ADE testbench, you'll write a Rhythm Recipe, a short, readable Python script that contains each step needed to test your circuit from setting up libraries and stimulus waveforms to setting up analyses and reading the results (in Rhythm, these steps are called stages). Need to run more than one simulation? Use a Rhythm Campaign to easily sweep across corners and test conditions with a live dashboard and multithreading support.
An agent to analyze electroweak phase transition. LeWRON turns a BSM model description or a reproduction target into a structured run: symbolic setup, effective-potential artifacts, finite-temperature machinery, generated model code, a scientific report, and an interactive exploration session. It keeps both machine-readable artifacts and human-readable notes, so a run can be resumed, audited, revised, and shared.
