[LHAPDF-announce] LHAPDF 6.1.3 releasedAndy Buckley andy.buckley at cern.chTue Jun 17 18:16:27 BST 2014
Dear LHAPDF users, We're pleased to announce the release of LHAPDF 6.1.3, a minor bugfix and improvement release. The main fix in this release is that there was an inline function which attempted to use the function std::vector::find()... which doesn't exist! This has been fixed in 6.1.3 -- thanks to the Herwig++ team for finding the issue. Other improvements include: * Reweighting functions are now available in the Python interface. * A PDF's AlphaS object may now be retrieved. * ODE solving for alpha_s now inserts subgrids on flavour thresholds. * Analytic and ODE alpha_s solving now allow (optional) use of flavour thresholds different from the quark masses. * The "lhapdf install" command now preferentially downloads from CERN's CVMFS or AFS systems, if they are available. * "Out of source" builds should now work, for those who care ;-) The source tarball may be downloaded as always from https://www.hepforge.org/downloads/lhapdf There are no new PDF sets to announce, but you may now download sets from /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/external/lhapdfsets/current/ and /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/lhapdfsets/current/ in addition to the website above. These locations are kept up to date, and are preferred if possible (not everyone will have access rights, but many of you will), to reduce the load on the HepForge web server. The "lhapdf install" command will automatically attempt to use these locations. Enjoy the new release! Andy & the LHAPDF6 team -- Dr Andy Buckley, Royal Society University Research Fellow Particle Physics Expt Group, University of Glasgow / PH Dept, CERN
