Περίληψη: We present mrfmsim, an open-source Python package that facilitates the design, simulation, and analysis of magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM) experiments. MRFM is a scanning-probe technique that detects magnetic resonance from nanoscale ensembles of nuclear or electron spins with a force sensor. Because MRFM experiments are complex and operate at sensitivity limits, numerical simulation is essential for designing experiments and estimating per-spin sensitivity and imaging resolution from measured signals. In this paper, we highlight the challenges of developing MRFM simulations and show that software designed to simulate specific experiments only in a rapidly evolving experimental field can yield erroneous results. The mrfmsim package addresses these challenges by supporting post-definition customization without rewriting the internal model and by employing a plugin system for extending functionality. We show that the package's modular, extendable, and readable architecture improves reproducibility and accelerates development. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
