Physics Research Software
The frameworks, libraries, and simulation codes that physicists rely on — from quantum dynamics and particle transport to astronomical surveys and electronic structure.
QuTiP
Open-source Python library for simulating the dynamics of open quantum systems. Used widely in AMO physics, quantum optics, and quantum information research.
ROOT
The backbone of data analysis in high-energy physics. Developed at CERN, ROOT handles the massive datasets produced by collider experiments like ATLAS and CMS at the LHC.
GEANT4
The industry standard for Monte Carlo simulation of particle transport through matter. Used in HEP detector design, medical physics, and space radiation studies.
AstroPy
The core Python package for astronomy. Provides tools for coordinate transformations, FITS file I/O, cosmological calculations, unit handling, and time systems.
Quantum ESPRESSO
An integrated suite for electronic-structure calculations and materials modeling at the nanoscale, based on density-functional theory (DFT) and plane-wave basis sets.
VAST
A radio astronomy survey program and associated pipeline for detecting and characterizing transient and variable sources in the radio sky using the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP).
