Description

The Gerda and Majorana projects, both searching for the neutrinoless double beta-decay of 76Ge, are developing a joint Monte-Carlo simulation framework called MaGe. Such an approach has many benefits: the workload for the development of general tools is shared between more experts, the code is tested in more detail, and more experimental data is made available for validation
