Open LHC Monte Carlo Event Generation
Enrico Bothmann, Jon Butterworth, Shu Chen +16
The LHC physics programme involves a vast amount of Monte Carlo event simulation. This paper reviews current efforts towards sharing the generated events as Open Data. Open Event G…
Constraints On New Theories Using Rivet : CONTUR version 3 release note
Andy Buckley, Jon Butterworth, Joseph Egan +7
The CONTUR toolkit exploits RIVET and its library of more than a thousand energy-frontier differential cross-section measurements from the Large Hadron Collider to allow rapid limi…
Reinterpretation and preservation of data and analyses in HEP
Jon Butterworth, Sabine Kraml, Harrison Prosper +145
Data from particle physics experiments are unique and are often the result of a very large investment of resources. Given the potential scientific impact of these data, which goes…
Event Generators for High-Energy Physics Experiments
J. M. Campbell, M. Diefenthaler, T. J. Hobbs +221
We provide an overview of the status of Monte-Carlo event generators for high-energy particle physics. Guided by the experimental needs and requirements, we highlight areas of acti…
