Open Source Tcl Physics Software

The NSCL Data Acquisition system is a general purpose nuclear physics data acquisition system in use at several university labs and, of course, the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University. The development of the NSCLDAQ is currently funded by DOE grant DE-SC0000661 Note that as of July, 2023 all development and release packages will be hosted at https://github.com/FRIBDAQ/NSCLDAQ

BeamGoo is a GUI front-end for linear accelerator particle simulation codes. It currently supports Impact-t, and is designed to be easily converted to other systems. It is built entirely in TCL, and is platform-independent.

The MetCal/SPA package provides diagnostic resources for users and developers of meteorological apps. The Shared Procedure Archive is a dynamic set of file I/O, analysis routines and APIs for third party packages accessible through the MetCal GUI.

NOSE is a package for simulation of linear and non-linear optical and infrared spectra, including absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism, pump-probe, photon echo and other.

SpecTcl is a Tcl/Tk based histogrammer suitable for analysis of nuclear physics data. SpecTcl is relatively easy to learn, and is based on top of a very open C++ histogramming class framework. SpecTcl has been developed under NSF grant PHY-9528844 and DOE grant DE-SC0000661 Note that as of July 2023, all future development and release packages will be occur at https://github.com/FRIBDAQ/SpecTcl

An SNTP client for Virtual PC. It is for machines that do not have a sane time and a working hardware RTC. It synchronize the system time frequently with a nearby NTP server. It uses settimeofday(). It is based on RFC 1769 and RFC 1305.

Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) solver for Tcl. Handles both stiff and non-stiff sets of equations; does time-evolved initial value problems and root finding. Based on the popular Lawrence Livermore solver LSODE.

XDAQ is a software platform designed specifically for the development of distributed data acquisition systems. The development is carried out at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Please visit http://xdaq.web.cern.ch

Tcl/Tk support for the EPICS control system along with EPICS aware megawidgets. Note that as of September 27, 2023, development and new releases of this project will occur on github. See: https://github.com/FRIBDAQ/EpicsTcl

The main scope of the program is to take Thermo-Calc or Dictra (both registered trademarks) and transform them into nicely formatted encapsulated postscript diagrams, generated by gnuplot. But exp2plt can also be used as a graphical interface to gnuplot.

This project is to implement a kind of educational program which will demonstrate FFT algorithm and help students better understand Fourier transformation.

Specfe is a graphical front end program intended to aid the use of the 'spec' data acquisition software. It can display interactive graphs of scanned data and present a user-friendly graphical interface to several of the more common spec commands.

Tkaero is a simple compressible aerodynamic calculator developed in Tcl/Tk.

A simple GUI for gnuplot in Tcl/Tk. The main goal of this project is to help novice/lazy users to use datafile oriented operations of 2D plotting. BETA version is available in "Download" section. Feel free to post Bug/Request/Patch in the Tracker. GNUP
