A neutrino oscillation probability package for KM3NeT/ORCA — •Johannes Schumann for the ANTARES-KM3NeT-Erlangen collaboration — ECAP, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Erwin-Rommel-Str. 1, 91058 Erlangen

A crucial part for the prediction of neutrino event rates is the flavour transition probability based on the phenomenon of neutrino oscillations. The computation time of those transition probabilities depends on the oscillation model and the sampled resolution of the propagation path. Thus, neutrino oscillation software is required to implement different oscillation model features at a high level of computational performance. A neutrino oscillation probability package (https://github.com/KM3NeT/Neurthino.jl) using the programming language Julia has been developed for use in the data processing chain of the KM3NeT/ORCA neutrino telescope. The package is based on an n-flavour oscillation model and capable of neutrino propagation through earth. The main features of Neurthino.jl will be outlined and a performance comparison to other commonly used oscillation software packages will be presented.
