Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The PUMAS library is a transport engine for muon and tau leptons in matter. It can operate with a configurable level of details, from a fast deterministic CSDA mode to a detailed Monte Carlo simulation. A peculiarity of PUMAS is that it is revertible, i.e. it can run in forward or in backward mode. Thus, the PUMAS library is particularly well suited for muography applications. In the present document, we provide a detailed description of PUMAS, of its physics and of its implementation. Program summary: Program Title: The PUMAS library CPC Library link to program files: https://doi.org/10.17632/dnry8jwkd7.1 Developer's repository link: https://niess.github.io/pumas-pages Code Ocean capsule: https://codeocean.com/capsule/4593807 Licensing provisions: LGPL-3.0 Programming language: C99 Nature of problem: Transport of high energy muon or tau leptons in matter. Solution method: Transport engine with a configurable level of details, from a fast deterministic CSDA mode to a detailed Monte Carlo simulation. The transport engine can operate in both forward and backward modes.
