High Energy and Nuclear Physics (HENP) libraries are now required to be more and more multi-thread-safe, if not multi-thread-friendly and multi-threaded. This is usually done using the new constructs and library components offered by the C++11 and C++14 standards. These components are however quite low-level and hard to use and compose. 
However, Go provides a set of better building blocks for tackling concurrency: goroutines and channels. This language is now used by the whole cloud industry: docker/moby, rkt, Kubernetes are obvious flagships for Go. But to be able to perform any meaningful physics analysis, one needs a set of basic libraries (matrix operations, linear algebra, plotting, I/O, ...) We present Go-HEP, a set of packages to easily write concurrent software to interface with legacy HENP C++ physics libraries.

Go-HEP: writing concurrent software with ease and Go

Go-HEP exposes libraries to read and write common High Energy Physics (HEP) file formats (HepMC (Dobbs and Hansen 2000), LHEF (Alwall et al. 2007), SLHA (Skands and others 2004)) but, at the moment, only read interoperability is achieved with ROOT file format. Go-HEP also provides tools to carry statistical analyses in the form of 1dim and 2-dim histograms, 1-dim and 2-dim scatters and n-tuples. Go-HEP can also graphically represent these results, leveraging the Gonum (T. G. authors, n.d.) plotting library.
