Debian Astro Simulation packages

This is a library (shared + static) and a front-end example program used for relativistic cosmology. The front-end `inhomog' provides command-line numerical exploration of a key question in present-day observational cosmology (is dark energy just an artefact of not modelling structure formation properly?) and the library is aimed for use by more computationally intensive simulations studying the same family of questions.

EinsteinPy is an open source pure Python package dedicated to problems arising in General Relativity and relativistic physics, such as goedesics plotting for schwarzschild space-time model, calculation of schwarzschild radius for any mass given, symbolic calculation of various functions related to GR such as christoffel symbols.

GEANT is a framework for simulating the passage of subatomic particles through matter, for instance, particle detectors. For maximum flexibility, GEANT simulations are performed by linking FORTRAN code supplied by the user with the GEANT library, then running the resulting executable.

This package includes gxint, a script that makes this linking step more convenient.

Yao is a monte-carlo simulation package for adaptive optics. It can be used stand-alone through a GTK-based integrated graphical user interface or as a Yorick language extension. Yao features:

• Shack-Hartmann and Curvature WFS, on or off axis;
• support for Stackarray (piezostack), curvature (bimorph), modal (zernike) and Tip-Tilt deformable mirrors. The altitude of conjugation is adjustable;
• arbitrary number of WFSs and DMs, with the possibility of mixing types. It is therefore possible (and easy) to simulate single DM systems, as well as single non-zero conjugate, GLAO and MCAO systems;
• support for Natural and Laser Guide Stars (or a mix), WFS with photon and read-out noise;
• multi-layered atmospheric model with geometrical propagation only;
• speed-optimized loop: critical routines have been coded in C.
