BSMatLHC

Tools for Beyond Standard Model event generation and analysis at LHC and other colliders

TO COMPILE THE CODE

0. you need cmake and ROOT

   http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/downloading-root

1. set the ROOTSYS environment variable in your shell

2. from the BSMatLHC directory run the script

   python script/ToBuild/compile.py

   This is a python script, so you need python. Moreover, the script will try to download external software (eg PYTHIA) so a Network connection is required

The compilation workflow was succesfully tested under Linux SL5

BEFORE RUNNING BSMGEN

Before running BSMGen, you need to source a configuration script from pythia, to load the hepMc shared library. The script to source depends on the shell you use

cd BSMGen source pythia/examples/config.(c)sh

TO RUN THE FULL CHAIN FROM A SLHA FILE

python python/runSLHA.py

**You will need to create a directory named

TO RUN THE FULL CHAIN FROM A LHE FILE

python python/runLHE.py

TO CLEANUP the installation

you can run the cleanup script

python script/ToBuild/cleanup.py

IMPORTANT: this will require to rerun from scratch the compilation script. If you just need to recompile (one of) the code(s) then just do

make clean

in the appropriate directory
