PySHS: Python Open Source Software for Second Harmonic Scattering.

The PySHS package is a new python open source software tool which simulates the second harmonic scattering (SHS) of different kinds of colloidal nano-objects in various experimental configurations. This package is able to compute polarizations resolved at a fixed scattered angle or angular distribution for different polarization configurations. This article presents the model implemented in the PySHS software and gives some computational examples. A comparison between computational results and experimental data concerning molecular dye intercalated inside liposomes membrane is presented to illustrate the possibilities with PySHS.
