This manual describes the usage and structure of FormFlavor, a Mathematica-based tool for computing a broad list of flavor and CP observables in general new physics models. Based on the powerful machinery of FeynArts and FormCalc, FormFlavor calculates the one-loop Wilson coefficients of the dimension 5 and 6 Standard Model effective Lagrangian entirely from scratch. These Wilson coefficients are then evolved down to the low scale using one-loop QCD RGEs, where they are transformed into flavor and CP observables. The last step is accomplished using a model-independent, largely stand-alone package called FFObservables that is included with FormFlavor. The SM predictions in FFObservables include up-to-date references and accurate current predictions. Using the functions and modular structure provided by FormFlavor, it is straightforward to add new observables. Currently, FormFlavor is set up to perform these calculations for the general, non-MFV MSSM, but in principle it can be generalized to arbitrary FeynArts models. FormFlavor and an up-to-date manual can be downloaded from: http://formflavor.hepforge.org.

FastJet is a C++ package that provides a broad range of jet finding and analysis tools. It includes efficient native implementations of all widely used 2-to-1 sequential recombination jet algorithms for pp and e+e- collisions, as well as access to 3rd party jet algorithms through a plugin mechanism, including all currently used cone algorithms. FastJet also provides means to facilitate the manipulation of jet substructure, including some common boosted heavy-object taggers, as well as tools for estimation of pileup and underlying-event noise levels, determination of jet areas and subtraction or suppression of noise in jets.
In this paper we describe Herwig++ version 2.3, a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of hard lepton-lepton, lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron collisions. A number of important hard scattering processes are available, together with an interface via the Les Houches Accord to specialized matrix element generators for additional processes. The simulation of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics includes a range of models and allows new models to be added by encoding the Feynman rules of the model. The parton-shower approach is used to simulate initial- and final-state QCD radiation, including colour coherence effects, with special emphasis on the correct description of radiation from heavy particles. The underlying event is simulated using an eikonal multiple parton-parton scattering model. The formation of hadrons from the quarks and gluons produced in the parton shower is described using the cluster hadronization model. Hadron decays are simulated using matrix elements, where possible including spin correlations and off-shell effects.
DPMJET samples hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus, nucleus-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus interactions at high energies. The two-component Dual Parton Model is used with multiple soft chains and multiple minijets at each elementary interaction. Particle production is realized by the fragmentation of colorless parton-parton chains constructed from the quark content of the interacting hadrons. DPMJET-II.5 includes the cascading of secondaries within the target as well as projectile nuclei which is suppressed by the formation time concept. The excitation energy of the remaining target and projectile nuclei is calculated and using this nuclear evaporation is included into the model. It is possible to use the model up to primary energies of 10${}^{21}$ eV (per nucleon) in the lab. frame. DPMJET can also be applied to neutrino nucleus collisions. It extends the neutrino-nucleon models qel (quasi elastic neutrino interactions) and lepto (deep inelastic neutrino nucleon collisions) to neutrino collisions on nuclear targets.
We present here an installation guide, a hand-on mini-tutorial through examples, and the theoretical foundations of the Hilbert++ code.
{sc SigSpec} computes the spectral significance levels for the DFT amplitude spectrum of a time series at arbitrarily given sampling. It is based on the analytical solution for the Probability Density Function (PDF) of an amplitude level, including dependencies on frequency and phase and referring to white noise. Using a time series dataset as input, an iterative procedure including step-by-step prewhitening of the most significant signal components and MultiSine least-squares fitting is provided to determine a whole set of signal components, which makes the program a powerful tool for multi-frequency analysis. Instead of the step-by-step prewhitening of the most significant peaks, the program is also able to take into account several steps of the prewhitening sequence simultaneously and check for the combination associated to a minimum residual scatter. This option is designed to overcome the aliasing problem caused by periodic time gaps in the dataset. {sc SigSpec} can detect non-sinusoidal periodicities in a dataset by simultaneously taking into account a fundamental frequency plus a set of harmonics. Time-resolved spectral significance analysis using a set of intervals of the time series is supported to investigate the development of eigenfrequencies over the observation time. Furthermore, an extension is available to perform the {sc SigSpec} analysis for multiple time series input files at once. In this MultiFile mode, time series may be tagged as target and comparison data. Based on this selection, {sc SigSpec} is capable of determining differential significance spectra for the target datasets with respect to coincidences in the comparison spectra. A built-in simulator to generate and superpose a variety of sinusoids and trends as well as different types of noise completes the software package at the present stage of development.
