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
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 hadronic cascade)
* Marcus BLEICHER (Hadronic cascade)
* Jan STEINHEIMER (Hadronic cascade)
There are a couple of projects connected to EPOS, as EPOS+HQ (heavy
quarks) and EPOS+PHSD, involving
* Pol-Bernard GOSSIAUX (EPOS+HQ)
* Joerg Aichelin (EPOS+HQ)
* Elena BRATKOVSKAYA (EPOS+PHSD)
* Mahbobeh JAFARPOUR (EPOS+PHSD)
