EOS - A software for Flavor Physics Phenomenology
EOS is a software package that addresses several use cases in the field of high-energy flavor physics:
- theory predictions of and uncertainty estimation for flavor observables within the Standard Model or within the Weak Effective Theory;
- Bayesian parameter inference from both experimental and theoretical constraints; and
- Monte Carlo simulation of pseudo events for flavor processes.
An up-to-date list of publications that use EOS can be found here.
EOS is written in C++17 and designed to be used through its Python 3 interface, ideally within a Jupyter notebook environment. It depends on as a small set of external software:
- the GNU Scientific Library (libgsl),
- a subset of the BOOST C++ libraries,
- the Python 3 interpreter.
For details on these dependencies we refer to the online documentation.
Installation
EOS supports several methods of installation. For Linux users, the recommended method is installation via PyPI:
pip3 install eoshep
Development versions tracking the master branch are also available via PyPi:
pip3 install --pre eoshep
For instructions on how to build and install EOS on your computer please have a look at the online documentation.
