CompHEP-4.4.90. Release notes
ATTENTION! THE VERSION 4.4.90 IS A TEST RELEASE! STILL NOT FOR SERIOUS PHYSICS RESEARCH!
Incompatibilities.
A new format of the initial state in session.dat.
ComHEP has two regimes of compilation, with or without LHAPDF. CompHEP with LHAPDF has incompatible beam strfun tables. So, these tables will be empty if a user tries to use old files in the new version. No problems in ComHEP without LHAPDf.
Fixed bugs.
Changes.
Symbolic part:
All PDFs in the beam/strfun tables have prefix PDF (or LHA, if LHAPDF is interfaced)
Proper generation of session.dat in s_comphep.
Lots of internal re-arrangements (to symplify the program structure).
Numerical part:
A new improved version of num_batch.pl
Diagram viewing is available in n_comphep (a new option in the main menu)
Re-arranged menu “Initial State”. Beam particle and PDF are separated.
The LHA event file format has been added, still with no extra HepML tags.
Common:
Now CompHEP is compatible with gcc-4.x
A new version of make_tab. Now it can processes files with several subprocesses.
CompHEP can be compiled in two different modes: with OR without LHAPDF.
Several options to ./configure have been added: –with-gcc4, –with-lhapdf, –debug, –help

Mixing of several event files in LHAef.
Check LHAPDF-compatible session.dat in internal-PDF-compatible n_comphep (and vice versa)
