Gfitter01: previous code version

• Please note that the code on this page is not maintained.

• The most recent and maintained version of the Gfitter framework can be found here.

• The code of Gfitter01 is available as tar-file: Gfitter01.tar.bz2
  [Add-on 1:
  The code of Gfitter01 is a derivative of ZFITTER v.6.42.
  Due to the subpackage Gfitter01/gsm. This fact is evident, but it is also declared below.
  The anonymous authors of Gfitter01/gsm are presumably: M. Goebel (Univ. Hamburg and Senacor Tech.), Prof. J. Haller (Univ. Hamburg), Dr. A. Hoecker (CERN).
  The subpackage Gfitter01/gsm has been created between June 2012 and March 2013.
  The ZFITTER software has conditions of use, including the CPC software licence http://cpc.cs.qub.ac.uk/licence/licence.html (1989, 2000, 2005).
  • When using ZFITTER or a derivative of ZFITTER, the reference to the webpage http://zfitter.com and to the following articles is mandatory:
    A. Arbuzov, D. Bardin, P. Christova, M. Jack, L. Kalinovskaya, A. Olchevski, S. Riemann, T. Riemann, Comput. Phys. Commun. 133 (2001) 229-395,
    A. Arbuzov, M. Awramik, M. Czakon, A. Freitas, M. Grunewald, S. Riemann, T. Riemann, Comput. Phys. Commun. 174 (2006) 728-758.

  • The distribution of derivatives of ZFITTER deserves the prior written permission of the author. The distribution of Gfitter01/gsm at this webpage is illegal.
    DESY as responsible for the publication of this version has been informed on that and is asked to retract the publication.]

• The following packages are included:
  • src/: Gfitter core code (controlling, data handling, fitting, statistics analysis, etc.)

  • test/: contains application macros and XML driving cards

  • gsm/: package for the calculation of electroweak observables

  • goblique/: package for the Standard Model predictions of oblique parameters

  • gstu/: package for the oblique parameter predictions for the Standard Model and beyond-SM models

  • g2hdm/: package for the prediction of observables in generic 2-Higgs doublet models
  
  
• Publications making use of this code are listed here.
  [Add-on 2:
  The statement is not correct.
  There are no "publications making use of this code": This code was created in 2012/2013.
  There are publications making use of Gfitter/gsm, created in 2006-2008 (with minor later additions), authored by M. Goebel (Univ. Hamburg), J. Haller (Univ. Hamburg), A. Hoecker (CERN).
  Besides the quote, there are further publications, see the list gfitter-publications-to-be-revised. pdf, extracted from the list gfitter-publications.html .]
  From the talks and proceedings listed here the ones up to July 2011 are based on this version.
  [Add-on 3:
  The statement is not correct.
  There are no "talks and proceedings ... up to July 2011 [which] are based on this version": We repeat, this code version was created in 2012/2013.
  There are talks and proceedings making use of Gfitter/gsm, created in 2006-2008 (with minor later improvements).
  Referring to Gfitter/gsm of 2006-2011, the list is by far not complete. See again the list gfitter-publications.html .]
• Less than 5% of the classes in this version contain code lines ported to C++ from the Fortran package ZFITTER.
  The quantative fraction of code based on ZFITTER in this version is estimated to be less then 7%.
  [Add-on 4:
  These estimates are irrelevant.
  The subpackage Gfitter/gsm, and no other subpackage of Gfitter, has been identified as result of plagiarism. See e.g. gfitter-uses-175-functions-of- zfitter.html and zfitter-code-in-gfitter.html.
  Nearly the complete physical content of the code, about 175 identities of different complexity, of Gfitter01/gsm had been "ported" from ZFITTER.]
  The locations are clearly marked in the source code of these classes.
  [Add-on 5:
  This has not been seriously approved by anybody.
  But the pure amount of indications of "integrations" seems to be realistic.]
  References to the physics journal papers, in which the corresponding formulae have been published initially, are also given.
  [Add-on 6:
  These "References to the physics journal papers" is partly irrelevant information, and partly not correct.
  Because the code under discussion was taken from the ZFITTER software, so the attribution has to go there-to. The correct references to original articles may be found in the many descriptions of ZFITTER by ZFITTER authors as well.
  More important: The mentioned attributions of copyright have been inserted into the package Gfitter01/gsm in 2012/2013, and not in 2006-2008.]
• Gfitter 1.0 does not contain any ported code lines.
  [Add-on 7:
  The statement might not be correct.
  There might well be illegally "ported code lines" contained in Gfitter 1.0. Only a very careful check can decide about this question, and one might have doubt that this effort has been invested.]

• DESY takes responsibility for the publication of this version and this page.
