1 Search Engine for Thesis
OATD.org aims to be the best possible resource for finding open access graduate theses and dissertations published around the world. Metadata (information about the theses) comes from over 1100 colleges, universities, and research institutions. OATD currently indexes 3,429,635 theses and dissertations.
Searchable and browsable database of dissertations and theses from around the world, spanning from 1743 to the present day"
lists most dissertations for most colleges and universities in the United States and Canada and a great many from around the world.
provides researchers with a single European Portal for the discovery of Electronic Theses and Dissertations, with access (at the time of this writing) to 490,746 open access research theses from 557 Universities in 28 European countries.
1.1 Journals
2 Feynman Diagrams
Plot Feynman diagrams in LateX using Tikz package
Draw Feynman diagrams using LateX package
Java program for drawing Feynman diagrams.
3 Data Analysis
3.1 MadAnalysis5
MadAnalysis 5 is a framework for phenomenological investigations at particle colliders. Based on a C++ kernel, this program allows to efficiently perform, in a straightforward and user-friendly fashion, sophisticated physics analyses of event files such as those generated by a large class of Monte Carlo event generators.
MadAnalysis 5 can also be used for the recasting of existing LHC analyses. These features are documented on the MA5 PAD (public analysis database), together with instructions to implement new analyses (see MadAnalysis).
3.2 Seer
An analysis package for LHCO files.
4 Computational Tools
4.1 PACKAGE X:
Package-X is a Mathematica package to obtain compact analytic expressions for one-loop integrals in higher order calculations of relativistic quantum field theory in 4 spacetime dimensions.
4.2 SAGE:
SageMath is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It builds on top of many existing open-source packages: NumPy, SciPy, matplotlib, Sympy, Maxima, GAP, FLINT, R and many more. Access their combined power through a common, Python-based language or directly via interfaces or wrappers. Mission: Creating a viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica and Matlab.
4.3 Maxima
Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions, including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, polynomials, sets, lists, vectors, matrices and tensors. Maxima yields high precision numerical results by using exact fractions, arbitrary-precision integers and variable-precision floating-point numbers. Maxima can plot functions and data in two and three dimensions.
4.4 Sym2INT
Lissting all interactions of a model
Extensions of the Standard Model (SM) might involve a different gauge group and/or new fields; in either case, it is important to understand what is the most general Lagrangian invariant under the symmetries of the model. However, sometimes one might forget to write down some valid interactions, and/or even end up writing some interactions which do not exist. Automatizing the process might help to reduce such mistakes.
This page describes the Mathematica code Sym2Int (Symmetries to Interactions) which lists all valid interactions — except those with derivatives and those involving gauge bosons — given the model's gauge group and fields (specified by their gauge and Lorentz representations). The program is valid for renormalizable interactions (mass dimension ≤4≤4) as well as the ones which are not renormalizable (mass dimension >4>4). More details can be found below.
