Abstrakti:Goupil is a software library designed for the Monte Carlo transport of low-energy gamma-rays, such as those emitted from radioactive isotopes. The library is distributed as a Python module. It implements a dedicated backward sampling algorithm that is highly effective for transporting photons in low density media. In the air, computation time savings of five orders of magnitude are achieved while maintaining an accuracy comparable to that of conventional Monte Carlo methods, to the nearest percent.
