    Hands on collider tools - jets and boosted objects (1h)¶
    
    Speaker: Gregory Soyez (IPhT, CEA Saclay)
    
    fastjet-WW-tutorial.pdf
    
    The material for the tutorial can be downloaded here:
    
    http://www.lpthe.jussieu.fr/~soyez/data/2017-Corfu-WW-tutorial.tar.gz
    
    Once you have unpacked it, there are instructions either in the README file or in the fastjet-WW-tutorial.pdf file. Prior to the hand-on session you might want to install fastjet (easier to do it in the same directory) following the instructions from
    
    http://fastjet.fr/quickstart.html
    
    The tutorial requires events file which I will circulate on a USB stick. If the internet connection is good enough, you can also get them by executing the "get-event-files.sh" script in the event-files directory

    Rivet 2.5.4 is here: https://rivet.hepforge.org/ The easiest thing to
    do is probably to run our bootstrap script, following the instructions
    at https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/wiki/GettingStarted

    Gambit (25'+5')¶
    
    Speaker: Pat Scott (Imperial College London)
    
    Slides
    
    Here is the link for downloading GAMBIT:
    http://www.hepforge.org/archive/gambit/gambit-1.0.1.tar.gz
    
    In the README.md file there is a list of other packages that are needed
    to install and run GAMBIT. I've pasted the list below for convenience.
    It's mostly standard packages, but I suspect not everyone will have will
    have packages like Eigen, yaml and hdf5 installed.
    
    -------------------
    
    GAMBIT is built using the CMake system. The following libraries and
    packages must be installed prior to configuration:
    
    COMPULSORY:
    
      - gcc/gfortran 4.7.1 or greater, or icc/ifort 12.1.0 or greater
      - Python 2.7 or greater (Python 3 is not supported)
      - Python modules: yaml, os, re, datetime, sys, getopt, shutil and
    itertools.
      - Boost 1.41 or greater
      - GNU Scientific Library (GSL) 1.10 or greater
      - Eigen 3.1.0 or greater
      - LAPACK
      - PKG Config
    
    OPTIONAL:
    
      - the h5py python module (for use of the hdf5 printer)
      - MPI (required for parallel sampling)
      - axel (speeds up downloads of backends and scanners)
      - graphviz (required for model hierarchy and dependency tree plots)
      - HDF5 (for use of the hdf5 printer)
      - ROOT (required for the Delphes detector simulation, or the GreAT
    scanner from ScannerBit)
  - 22
    
    Whizard (25'+5')¶
    
    Speaker: Jürgen Reuter (DESY Hamburg, Germany)
    
    JRR_2017_Tools.pdf
    
    This is a Docker image. It can be downloaded from here: http://whizard.hepforge.org/tutorials/tutorial-2017/
    (either gzipped oder bzip2ed)
    
    In that folder there is also an explanation how to install and use docker. You basically load the docker image to be downloaded, and then
    you have something like a virtual machine.

    PySecDec (25' + 5')¶
    
    Speaker: Stephan Jahn (MPI)
    
    Stephan_Jahn_Tools2017.pdf
    
    All important information about (py)SecDec is linked from our web page:
    
    http://secdec.hepforge.org/
    
    Installation instructions are available in the manual:
    
    http://secdec.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html
    
    An introduction to the basic usage is provided in the manual:
    
    http://secdec.readthedocs.io/en/stable/gettingstarted.html
    
    The distribution tarballs come with a variety of examples. All examples
    
    are listed on the bottom of the "Getting Started" section in the manual.
    
    Additional information and a more extensive discussion of the examples
    
    can also be found in our paper [1703.09692] (submitted to CPC).
