MuDirac

A muonic atom Dirac equation solver.

Compiling

To compile, create a directory called build; then, within that directory, execute the commands

cmake ..
make mudirac

In order to run the test suite, within the same directory, run

make tests
make test

and wait for a few seconds for the tests to complete. If you want mudirac to be accessible from any folder in your computer, add the resulting bin directory to your system PATH environment variable.

Running

Simulations can be run simply with the command

mudirac input.in

where the .in file can have any name one prefers. A full list of keywords employable in the .in file and their meaning can be found in docs/Keywords.pdf.

Citing MuDirac

For the theoretical background on the software and examples of its applications, see the published paper:

Sturniolo, S, Hillier, A. Mudirac: A Dirac equation solver for elemental analysis with muonic X‐rays. X‐Ray Spectrom. 2020; 1– 17. https://doi.org/10.1002/xrs.3212

Cite the above paper if you make use of the software in your work too.
