Gosia is the primary analysis code for planning experiments and analyzing data for [[low-energy Coulomb excitation]] experiments. The original version was written at the University of Rochester in 1979--1980 by [[Tomasz Czosnyka]], who maintained the code until his untimely death in 2006.

| + | ===The GUI for Gosia=== | ||
A [[Gui]] called Rachel has been developed and is currently undergoing beta-testing. 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. | A [[Gui]] called Rachel has been developed and is currently undergoing beta-testing.
