5. FeynRules - Feynman rules made easy

Claude Duhr (UCL)

The hunt for new physics at the LHC will bring up new challenges on both the theoretical and experimental side. Many tools, symbolical and numerical, are available nowadays to facilitate the communication between theorists and experimentalists involved in this hunt. However, the implementation of new physics models into the existing tools is a rather tedious work. I present a new tool called...

As the LHC turns on, and our theoretical models prepare to confront data, we need to be prepared to implement various models in monte carlo event generators for comparison. There is a large number of monte carlo generators on the market including CalcHEP/CompHEP, MadGraph, Sherpa, Herwig, Whizard and others. Each of these tools has different strengths and weaknesses and so it would be ideal if...

7. Tutorial 1: LanHEP

Andrey Semenov (JINR)

The LanHEP program for Feynman rules generation is presented. It reads the Lagrangian written in the compact form close to one used in publications. It means that Lagrangian terms can be written with summation over indices of broken symmetries and using special symbols for complicated expressions, such as covariant derivative and strength tensor for gauge fields. The output is Feynman rules in...
