## CREDITS ### Institutions The code (VENUS, then NEXUS, then EPOS) was developed at the following institutions: * Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), USA * CERN, Switzerland * University of Heidelberg, Germany * SUBATECH, University of Nantes – IN2P3/CNRS – IMT Atlantique, France * Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany * Warsaw University of Technology, Poland (PhD project) * Bogolyubov Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kiev, Ukraine (PhD project) * Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria, Valparaiso, Chile ### EPOS contributors The current EPOS code still contains quite some pieces from its predecessors NEXUS and VENUS, therefore the corresponding developers are still important contributors to the EPOS project. * Klaus WERNER (EPOS coordinator and founder, EPOS4 developer, NEXUS, VENUS) * Damien VINTACHE (Graphics, installation) * Johannes JAHAN (Susceptibilities, analysis, Rivet-EPOS interface) * Benjamin GUIOT (EPOS3, heavy flavor) * Gabriel SOPHYS (EPOS3, analysis) * Tanguy PIEROG (Cosmic Ray application, EPOS LHC, EPOS3) * Sergej OSTAPCHENKO (NEXUS, pQCD part) * Michael HLADIK (NEXUS Metropolis) * Hajo DRESCHER (NEXUS string decay) * Iurii KARPENKO (Hydro module) * Maria STEFANIAK (EoS module) * Sarah PORTEBOEUF (Hard processes, connecting UrQMD) ### Collaborators There are a couple of projects connected to EPOS, involving * Pol-Bernard GOSSIAUX (EPOS+HQ) * Joerg Aichelin (EPOS+HQ) * Jiaxing Zhao (EPOS+HQ) * Elena BRATKOVSKAYA (EPOS+PHSD) * Mahbobeh JAFARPOUR (EPOS+PHSD) * Marcus Bleicher (EPOS+UrQMD) * Jan Steinheimer (EPOS+UrQMD)
