Gosia is the primary analysis code for planning experiments and analyzing data for nuclear structure physics using [[low-energy Coulomb excitation]] experiments. It is suited for both planning experiments and analysis of Coulomb excitation data. The original version was written at the University of Rochester in 1979--1980 by [[Tomasz Czosnyka]], [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~cline/ D. Cline] and [http://www.turpion.org/links/ca4ad02e0d0fafd70a31c549cf4b3c4c_0.phtml C.Y. Wu]. T. Czosnyka maintained the code until his untimely death in 2006.

The current version can be found in the download section above. Novice Gosia users can use this interface to develop properly formatted template Gosia input files. These can be modified by comparing the input lines to the Gosia manual instructions, or Gosia can be run entirely from within the GUI for many typical [[simulation (experiment planning)]] and analysis problems. |
