#  Simulations and Software Development 

 



Our group has developed several open-source software tools to aid simulation, reconstruction, and analysis for neutrino experimentalists and phenomenologists alike. The software packages that we actively maintain include:

### Prometheus

A tool for simulating light yield of charged particles in a water Cherenkov neutrino telescope. Prometheus handles the photon propagation through ice or water and records the resulting photon hits on optical modules.

### SIREN

A tool for simulating rare events, including neutrino interactions or new interactions/decays in BSM models) with realistic detector geometries. SIREN outputs the positions, kinematics, and event weights of visible final state particles

### NuSQuIDS

A tool for propagating neutrinos through a given density profile, incorporating oscillations as well as matter effects from coherent and non-coherent neutrino interactions.

### GollumFit

A tool for performing binned-likelihood analyses on neutrino telescope data, from IceCube or otherwise. GollumFit has the ability to fit over several nuisance parameters at once.

[Github](https://github.com/icecube/GollumFit) [arXiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.04491)

### TAMBO-MC

Public monte carlo simulation framework for the Tau Mountain-Based Observatory. TAMBO-MC is written in julia interfaces with the latest version of CORSIKA to simulate air showers from tau decays in the valley.

### Neptune

An efficient point-cloud transformer for reconstruction and classification tasks on neutrino telescope data
