  3. Compiling GiBUU

In the case you face problems with libRootTuple, follow this direct link.

At the moment, only downloading of tar-balls is possible.

Default Installation

  1. generate base directory: 
    mkdir GiBUU; cd GiBUU
  1. download and unpacking: 
    wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=release2023.tar.gz
wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=buuinput2023.tar.gz

tar -xzvf buuinput2023.tar.gz
tar -xzvf release2023.tar.gz
  1. change into release directory: 
    cd release
  1. compile GiBUU: 
    make
  1. run GiBUU: 
    ./testRun/GiBUU.x < your_Jobcard

Installation with ROOT output

If you want to use the possibility to get event output in ROOT format, the installation has to be slightly modified:

  1. generate base directory: 
    mkdir GiBUU; cd GiBUU
  1. download and unpacking: 
    wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=release2023.tar.gz
wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=buuinput2023.tar.gz
wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=libraries2023_RootTuple.tar.gz

tar -xzvf buuinput2023.tar.gz
tar -xzvf release2023.tar.gz
tar -xzvf libraries2023_RootTuple.tar.gz
  1. change into release directory: 
    cd release
  1. a) compile RootTuple library: 
    make buildRootTuple
  1. b) compile GiBUU: 
    make withROOT=1
  1. run GiBUU: 
    ./testRun/GiBUU.x < your_Jobcard

ensure to have something like the following in 'your_Jobcard': 

! file: ./analysis/EventOutputAnalysis.f90
&EventOutput
      WritePerturbativeParticles = T
      EventFormat = 4 ! 1=LesHouches, 4=ROOT
/

Installation with HepMC3 output (future v2024)

If you want to use the possibility to get event output in HepMC3 format via the HepMC3 C++ library, the installation has to be slightly modified:

  1. generate base directory: 
    mkdir GiBUU; cd GiBUU
  1. download and unpacking: 
    wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=release2024.tar.gz
wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=buuinput2024.tar.gz
wget --content-disposition https://gibuu.hepforge.org/downloads?f=libraries2024_HEPMC3.tar.gz

tar -xzvf buuinput2024.tar.gz
tar -xzvf release2024.tar.gz
tar -xzvf libraries2024_HEPMC3.tar.gz
  1. change into release directory: 
    cd release
  1. a) compile !HEPMC3event library: 
    make buildHEPMC3event
  1. b) compile GiBUU: 
    make withHEPMC3=1
  1. run GiBUU: 
    ./testRun/GiBUU.x < your_Jobcard

ensure to have something like the following in 'your_Jobcard': 

! file: ./analysis/EventOutputAnalysis.f90
&EventOutput
      WritePerturbativeParticles = T
      EventFormat = 6 ! 1=LesHouches, 6=HepMC3
