[Higgsbounds-announce] HiggsBounds 3.1.1beta - Bug Fix

[Tim Stefaniak]

***We'd like to announce the release of HiggsBounds version 3.1.1beta***

We fixed a bug in the normalization factor in the Tevatron gluon fusion
cross section function. This bug was present in HiggsBounds version
3.0.0beta and version 3.1.0beta. It could have led to wrong results
when using the Tevatron analyses and we therefore strongly recommend to
update to the newest version.
Furthermore, we made some minor changes which enable the user to change
delta_Mh_TEV and delta_Mh_LHC to a non-zero value in order to combine
almost mass-degenerate Higgs bosons.

The new HiggsBounds version is available on our website
http://projects.hepforge.org/higgsbounds/ .

We apologize for any inconvenience due to the bug. Your questions and
feedback are very welcome!

Best regards,
    The HiggsBounds Team
