In this talk I will review the advances in packages for high-energy physics in the Julia ecosystem since the last JuliaHEP in 2024. New packages, such as Minuit and HepMC3, have been wrapped, and many native packages have added new features. I shall look at progress for end-to-end FCC analysis in particular. I shall end with some discussion of what next steps would bring the most benefit to...

In this talk, we demonstrate a GPU-friendly extension to the FHist.jl. Within the analysis computing ecosystem, moving to GPU has been a steady trend, however, since any event we select almost always goes to a histogram, it would be a huge bottleneck if histogramming requires moving data GPU -> CPU.
We briefly discuss the design and implementation of GPU-backed histogram, and then show some...

Charmonium spectral functions play an important role in studying properties of the hot and dense medium formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions since they carry important theoretical information on probes of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. However, obtaining the spectral function from the correlation function, which can be obtained from lattice QCD, is an ill-posed inverse problem. To address this...

Leveraging C++ wrapping techniques (CxxWrap), the package grants direct access to the native HepMC3 library functions from within Julia. Aided by tools like WrapIt for generating Julia bindings to C++ headers, the package simplifies integration and...

After the major update of the ROOT.jl package restoring compatibility with recent Julia releases, which was presented last year, a new breakthrough has been achieved. The installation of the C++ framework, used as the backend, and the ROOT.jl binaries (shared libraries) are now integrated into the Julia package manager. All dependencies are now precompiled and installed automatically, when the...

We investigate the properties of mesons within quark models using Julia. Quark models describe the spectra and structures of mesons. These potentials have several terms. For example, the Cornell potential has three terms: a constant term, a linear term, and a Coulomb term. Furthermore, a hyperfine interaction term is added in our case: [A. J. Arifi, L. Happ, S. Ohno, M. Oka, Phys. Rev. D 110,...

The generation of scattering events is one of the most compute-intensive tasks in High-Energy Physics (HEP) experiment simulations. This challenge becomes even more significant for upcoming HEP colliders, as well as for computation-heavy applications in other domains (e.g., laser-plasma physics), where it increasingly limits the range of physics that can feasibly be included. Therefore,...

Spin correlations in successive parton splittings are a crucial quantum effect in QCD, arising from interference between virtual gluon helicity states and manifesting as a cos(2ฯ) modulation in the azimuthal emission patterns in jet substructure. Accurate modeling of these correlations is required for achieving next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) precision in parton shower algorithms. In...
