+ | The Rachel tar archive of version 2.0.5.beta is available on a [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/beta_rachel/rachel.2.0.5.beta.tar temporary download site]. This includes an ''extended'' version of Gosia that makes use of file number 99 for amplitude vs. time data [[File:Amplitudes.png|thumb|right|Excitation amplitude as a function of the time-like variable 'w' generated by Gosia via the Rachel GUI.]] and collision function output for optional plotting functions in the GUI. Except for these two functions, the GUI can be run with the current version of Gosia, 20081208.10. | ||

The video narration has not been updated for all of the new detector options, and some prompts will be different from those in the video. |
