About PyRETIS

PyRETIS is a Python library for rare event molecular simulations with emphasis on methods based on transition interface sampling and replica exchange transition interface sampling. The papers describing the PyRETIS program can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1002/jcc.24900 (PyRETIS 1, 2017), here: https://doi.org/10.1002/jcc.26112 (PyRETIS 2, 2019). and here: https://doi.org/10.1002/jcc.27319 (PyRETIS 3, 2024).

The work on PyRETIS was initiated by Titus van Erp and is used in the research and teaching activities in the theoretical chemistry group at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
