This document looks very different from
Torbjörn's version, but there still
remain a lot of links that have to be updated. Stay tuned ...
This document collects information about and WWW-links to computer
codes for Linear Collider Physics. The purpose of this document is
two-fold:
provide a comprehensive listing of all relevant codes
provide suggestions for the
European study group preparing the Technical Design
Report for a detector for Linear Collider Physics
For the first purpose, we expect fruitful cross-pollination with the
corresponding world wide
efforts and the other regional efforts in
the
Americas and
Asia.
If you don't agree with some of the assessments regarding the second
purpose, please send mail to me (Thorsten Ohl
(<ohl@physik.uni-wuerzburg.de>, home page: http://theorie.physik.uni-wuerzburg.de/~ohl/)), so that we can resolve the
issue. If a program's features are misrepresented, it can be either
the fault of incomplete documentation or, more likely, the fault of my
ignorance. Both problems should be trivial to correct.
I have tried to err on the conservative side, i. e. it should be more
likely that a feature has been implemented reliably by a particular
code and missing here, than the other way around.
We hope that ambitious generator authors (i.e. authors who want their
programs to be taken seriously) will add some sample main programs for
runs at linear colliders, in addition to the program code itself and
the documentation.
