Lumen-code

Lumen is an advanced many-body perturbation theory code designed for the exploration of excited states and optical responses. Derived from the well-regarded Yambo code, Lumen ensures initial compatibility while offering distinct features that are expected to evolve over time. It provides researchers with powerful tools for first-principles calculations, enabling detailed analysis and understanding in fields related to condensed matter physics.

Lumen is committed to maintaining continuity with YamboPy by supporting tutorials, input methods, and data interface, making it accessible for users transitioning from Yambo. The code has recently gained recognition, becoming officially citable, and is continuously updated with new tutorials and enhancements, reflecting the active development of its community. Users are encouraged to cite Lumen alongside Yambo to acknowledge the foundational work behind these tools.

With its innovative capabilities and commitment to user support, Lumen positions itself as an essential resource for academic and professional research in many-body theory
