Rivet user manual

Abstract
This is the manual and user guide for the Rivet system for the validation and tuning of Monte Carlo event generators. As well as the core Rivet library, this manual describes the usage of the rivet program and the AGILe generator interface library. The depth and level of description is chosen for users of the system, starting with the basics of using validation code written by others, and then covering sufficient details to write new Rivet analyses and calculational components.

Title of program: Rivet
Catalogue Id: AEPS_v1_0

Nature of problem
Experimental measurements from high-energy particle colliders should be defined and stored in a general framework such that it is simple to compare theory predictions to them. Rivet is such a framework, and contains at the same time a large collection of existing measurements.

This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2019)

摘要
本手册为用于蒙特卡洛事件发生器验证与调谐的Rivet系统的操作与用户指南。本手册不仅涵盖核心Rivet库，还详细介绍了rivet程序以及AGILe发生器接口库的使用方法。本手册的内容深度与覆盖层级面向系统使用者设计，从使用他人已编写的验证代码的基础操作入手，随后详细阐述编写全新Rivet分析与计算组件所需的全部细节。

程序名称：Rivet
目录编号：AEPS_v1_0

问题本质
高能粒子对撞机的实验测量结果应被定义并存储于通用框架中，以便于将理论预言与测量结果进行便捷比对。Rivet正是这样一款通用框架，同时内置了大量已有的实验测量数据集。
