+"""softpaws — a first-principles forward model for UHE neutrino telescopes.
+
+Implements the analytic muon transport of Meighen-Berger, *Estimating
+High-Energy Neutrino Effective Areas from Muon Propagation* (2026). The locally
+scale-invariant collision operator is diagonalized by power laws, so a muon's
+whole loss history collapses to a single transport exponent ``Phi(s)``, which
+then serves as a first-passage generator for the range of the muon and for the
+detector response built on it. The result is benchmarked against the published
+effective areas of IceCube, KM3NeT/ARCA, P-ONE and TRIDENT, against IceCube's
+own instrument response functions (effective area + smearing matrix), and
+against IceCube data.
+
+Modules
+-------
+constants
+    Units (the code computes in GeV, cm, s and rad), physical constants and defaults.
+data
+    Load the IceCube releases and the published curves of the other detectors.
+detectors
+    Published geometry, medium, and optics for each site.
+fluxes
+    Power laws, the published IceCube fits, and the atmospheric background.
+transport
+    The loss kernel, the transport exponent, ranges, Earth, and the tau channel.
+response
+    Forward models mapping a neutrino flux to an effective area or event rate.
+comparison
+    Likelihoods, the event benchmark, and single-track energy reconstruction.
