Presentation on the Particle and DecayLanguage packages of the Scikit-HEP project at the PyHEP 2022 workshop on September 13th 2022.
An overview of the Particle & DecayLanguage packages is given. Particle provides a pythonic interface to the Particle Data Group particle data tables and particle identification codes, with extended particle information and extra goodies. DecayLanguage provides tools to parse so-called .dec decay files, and describe, manipulate and visualise decay chains. DecayLanguage also implements a language to describe and convert particle decays between digital representations, effectively making it possible to interoperate several fitting programs.
