ami2py is a Python module that runs the SAMI2 (Sami2 is Another Model of the Ionosphere) ionospheric model, as well as load and archive the results. SAMI2 is a model developed by the Naval Research Laboratory to simulate the motions of plasma in a two-dimensional ionospheric environment along a dipole magnetic field. SAMI2 solves for the chemical and dynamical evolution of seven ion species in this environment (H+ , He+ , N+ , O+ , N+ 2 , NO , and O2 ). The Python implementation allows for additional modifications to the empirical models within SAMI2, including the exospheric temperature in the empirical thermosphere and the input of E×B ion drifts. The code is open source and available to the community on GitHub. The work here discusses the implementation and use of sami2py, including integration with the pysat ecosystem and the growin python package for ionospheric calculations. As part of the Application Usability Level (AUL) framework, we will discuss the usability of this code in terms of several ionospheric applications.

Hierarchical equations of motion in the Libra software package
Abstract We report the implementation of a hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) module within the open‐source Libra software. It includes the standard and scaled HEOM algorithms for computing the dynamics of open quantum systems interacting with a harmonic bath. The module allows the computing of the evolution of the reduced density matrix, as well as spectral lineshapes. The truncation, filtering, and “update list” schemes, as well as OpenMP parallelization, allow for further computational saving. The package is written in a mix of C++ and Python languages, delivering the best compromise between user friendliness and efficiency. The Python layer of the package takes advantage of standard Python libraries, such as h5py, which allows efficient storage and retrieval of the generated results. The package can be seamlessly used within Jupyter notebooks; its careful design shall provide the maximal convenience and intuitiveness to its users.

Abstract In this work we present : A package dedicated to efficient computations of observables in the Early Universe with the focus on the cosmological era of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN). The code offers fast and precise evaluation of BBN light-element abundances together with the effective number of relativistic degrees of freedom, including non-instantaneous decoupling effects. is suitable for state-of-the-art analyses in the Standard Model as well as for general investigations into New Physics active during BBN. After reviewing the physics implemented in , we provide a short guide on how to use the code for applications in the Standard Model and beyond. The package is written in Python, but more advanced users can optionally take advantage of the open-source community for Julia. is publicly available on GitHub.more » « less

Abstract We present an open-source software package called “Hamiltonian Open Quantum System Toolkit (HOQST), a collection of tools for the investigation of open quantum system dynamics in Hamiltonian quantum computing, including both quantum annealing and the gate-model of quantum computing. It features the key master equations (MEs) used in the field, suitable for describing the reduced system dynamics of an arbitrary time-dependent Hamiltonian with either weak or strong coupling to infinite-dimensional quantum baths. We present an overview of the theories behind the various MEs and provide examples to illustrate typical workflows in HOQST. We present an example that shows that HOQST can provide order of magnitude speedups compared to “Quantum Toolbox in Python (QuTiP), for problems with time-dependent Hamiltonians. The package is ready to be deployed on high performance computing (HPC) clusters and is aimed at providing reliable open-system analysis tools for noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices.more » « less

Abstract We present a draft Minimum Information About Geospatial Information System (MIAGIS) standard for facilitating public deposition of geospatial information system (GIS) datasets that follows the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) principles. The draft MIAGIS standard includes a deposition directory structure and a minimum javascript object notation (JSON) metadata formatted file that is designed to capture critical metadata describing GIS layers and maps as well as their sources of data and methods of generation. The associated miagis Python package facilitates the creation of this MIAGIS metadata file and directly supports metadata extraction from both Esri JSON and GEOJSON GIS data formats plus options for extraction from user-specified JSON formats. We also demonstrate their use in crafting two example depositions of ArcGIS generated maps. We hope this draft MIAGIS standard along with the supporting miagis Python package will assist in establishing a GIS standards group that will develop the draft into a full standard for the wider GIS community as well as a future public repository for GIS datasets.more » « less

We describe a new open-source Python-based package for high accuracy correlated electron calculations using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) in real space: PyQMC. PyQMC implements modern versions of QMC algorithms in an accessible format, enabling algorithmic development and easy implementation of complex workflows. Tight integration with the PySCF environment allows for a simple comparison between QMC calculations and other many-body wave function techniques, as well as access to high accuracy trial wave functions.more » « less
