Over a three-month period, Felix Schluter enhanced data processing and build reliability across the nu-radio/NuRadioMC and RNO-G/mattak repositories. He standardized inelasticity model naming in NuRadioMC, improving simulation reproducibility and maintainability. In RNO-G/mattak, Felix implemented a ROOT compatibility layer and explicit int16 casting to ensure robust data handling across ROOT versions, while refining CMake-based build systems for flexible installation and integration. He also resolved module execution and dictionary generation errors, reducing build failures and data processing issues. Working primarily in C++, Python, and CMake, Felix demonstrated depth in backend development, software compatibility, and documentation for scientific computing workflows.

September 2025 monthly summary: Delivered stability and interoperability improvements across NuRadioMC and RNO-G mattak, focusing on robust data processing and flexible build/install workflows. Key work included fixing module execution order and block offset handling in DataProviderRNOG, resolving a ROOT LinkDef.h syntax error that blocked dictionary generation, and introducing configurable installation directories with clearer ROOT packaging. These changes reduce data processing errors, eliminate build-time failures, and simplify deployment for ROOT-dependent analyses. Demonstrated skills in CMake-based build configuration, ROOT dictionary generation, version control hygiene, and problem-solving across C++ data-processing modules.

August 2025: Delivered major compatibility and data integrity improvements for RNO-G/mattak, along with enhanced onboarding documentation for the C++/Python API. The ROOT compatibility layer in the rno-g-combine module ensures robust data processing across ROOT versions (including 6.34+), incorporating preprocessor guards for LZMA API changes and an explicit int16 casting pathway to preserve uncalibrated waveform data integrity. Onboarding improvements provide clear CMake build steps, environment variable guidance, and pybind11 path handling, reducing setup friction and support load. These changes improve cross-version reliability, data quality, and developer productivity while strengthening the project’s maintainability.

May 2025 summary for nu-radio/NuRadioMC: Implemented standardized naming for the inelasticity model to ensure consistent references in neutrino interaction modeling. Updated default model nomenclature from BGR18 to hedis_bgr18 in generator.py and adjusted the inelasticities.py API signature to reflect the new default. This change improves reliability, reproducibility, and maintainability of simulation configurations.
