Calculate section

The Calculate section of HEPMDB is accessible only if you're registered. Thanks to this section, you'll be able to use HEPMDB computation frame in order to produce events, compute cross-sections using the various models on the website.

The interface

The interface is divided in four parts:

1. the upper bar, with general menus,
2. the lower frame, with general information on the last operations,
3. the left menu, with the main functions and the program list,
4. the main part, presenting results of computation.

The upper menu

In the upper menu, you'll find:

• A help button,
• The Go to HEPMDB button which brings you back to HEPMDB main page,
• The actual menu.

Most of the menu commands are straight forward. A few precisions might still be needed.

• Remove models: it removes all models that were imported. When a model has been updated, it is necessary to remove the old version this way. There is still no option to remove models individually.
• Reset model list and clear results: This will reset everything to its default state. No results will be kept. You should download them before.
• Show queue on HPCx: as HEPMDB is a shared resource, when you asked for a job, it is put in the queue. This button displays the whole queue.
