MUSES Calculation Engine Documentation

MUSES (Modular Unified Solver of the Equation of State) is an NSF-funded large collaboration project that provides the scientific community novel tools to answer critical interdisciplinary questions in nuclear physics, gravitational wave astrophysics, and heavy-ion physics by developing scientific software modules, deploying web applications to run data processing workflows at scale, and generating scientific data products.

Tip

If you are a researcher who wants run scientific workflows, we recommend starting with the Quick Start Guide.

This is the documentation for the MUSES Calculation Engine and the MUSES modules available for workflows. It includes sections targeting several audiences including:

• researchers who want to use the Calculation Engine to run scientific workflows

• scientists who want to adapt their own calculation software to the MUSES framework for integration with the Calculation Engine

• research software engineers who want to learn how to develop the Calculation Engine and/or deploy it on their own hardware
