Flamedisx aims to increase the practical number of dimensions and parameters in likelihoods for liquid-xenon (LXe) detectors, which are leading the field of direct dark matter detection.

Traditionally, particle physicists compute signal and background models by filling histogram 'templates' with high-statistics Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. However, the LXe model can also be computed with a series of (large) matrix multiplications, equivalent to the integral approximated by the MC simulation. Using TensorFlow makes this computation differentiable and GPU-scalable, so it can be used practically for fitting and statistical inference.

The result is a better sensitivity, since the likelihood can use all observables, and more robust fits, because using simultaneous correlated nuisance parameters no longer requires challenging interpolation and template morphing.



Getting started
---------------------------

To get started, [Launch our tutorial on Colaboratory](https://colab.research.google.com/github/FlamTeam/flamedisx-notebooks/blob/master/Tutorial.ipynb), or view it statically on [GitHub](https://github.com/FlamTeam/flamedisx-notebooks/blob/master/Tutorial.ipynb) or [ReadTheDocs](https://flamedisx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial.html).

Our [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.12483) gives a detailed description of Flamedisx, and compares Flamedisx quantitatively to traditional template-based methods.

If you want all the details, see the [Flamedisx Documentation](https://flamedisx.readthedocs.io) and our [Notebooks repository](https://github.com/FlamTeam/flamedisx-notebooks).

Since version 2.0.0, flamedisx includes an implementation of electronic and nuclear recoil models from the [Noble Element Simulation Technique](https://nest.physics.ucdavis.edu/). To use this, use sources from the ``fd.nest`` subpackage, e.g. ``fd.nest.ERSource``. See the [flameNEST paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.13621) for a detailed description and validation.

As of April 2024, we implement NEST version 2.3.0, which was released November 2021 (see [#249](https://github.com/FlamTeam/flamedisx/pull/249)).
