EvtGen at DØ

  About EvtGen
      EvtGen is the package used at DØ to decay B hadrons in MC event modeling.
      DØ's version is based on EvtGen v00-09-39, with several later fixes introduced by the authors
      David Lange and Anders Ryd, by CDF, and by DØ.
      With these modifications, it is almost the same as v00-14-05.
      EvtGen is in DØ's test branch v00-00-44 and p20 branch p20-br-01.

  Documentation
      All the documentation on EvtGen is rather old. See for example

• Package home page at SLAC, 2003
• DØ's web page, 2003
• CDF's web page, 2002
• NIM paper by David Lange, 2001

  Latest Decay Table
      Richard Tesarek of Fermilab and CDF has a new decay table based on the 2008 edition of the Particle Data Book
      Please conatact Gerald and Ann if your physics group is interested in installing and testing this table.
      here is DØ's current decay table for comparison.
