Neutrino oscillation parameter sampling with MonteCUBES

This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2018)

Abstract
We present MonteCUBES (“Monte Carlo Utility Based Experiment Simulator”), a software package designed to sample the neutrino oscillation parameter space through Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms. MonteCUBES makes use of the GLoBES software so that the existing experiment definitions for GLoBES, describing long baseline and reactor experiments, can be used with MonteCUBES. MonteCUBES consists of two main parts: The first is a C library, written as a plug-in for GLoBES, implementing the Marko...

Nature of problem
Since neutrino masses do not appear in the standard model of particle physics, many models of neutrino masses also induce other types of new physics, which could affect the outcome of neutrino oscillation experiments. In general, these new physics imply large dimensional parameter spaces that are difficult to explore using classical methods such as multi-dimensional projections and minimisations, such as those used in GLoBES [1, 2].
