This is code for an upcoming analysis of ATLAS data looking for supersymmetric decays.

if you like or must use venvs:

mkvirtualenv threebody
workon threebody

get the code:

git clone https://github.com/lukasheinrich/threebody.git ~/threebody
cd ~/threebody
HEPMCPATH=$HOME/heptools/local pip install --editable $PWD --process-dependency-links
cd workflow
./waf configure

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lukasheinrich/threebody/master/utils/lxplus-bootstrap
chmod +x lxplus-bootstrap
./lxlpus-bootsrap

to setup a fresh CernVM 3 instance you can use these scripts:

For EVGEN generation using asetup 18.1.0,here works as an Athena Release

• python2.7, virtualenv 1.6
• madgraph 1.5.10: bzr branch lp:~maddevelopers/mg5amcnlo/1.5.10 madgraph-1.5.10
• pythia8: wget http://home.thep.lu.se/~torbjorn/pythia8/pythia8186.tgz
• rivet (comes with HepMC): wget http://rivet.hepforge.org/hg/bootstrap/raw-file/2.1.2/rivet-bootstrap
• inkscape (optional for some svg2pdf conversion)

configure waf (if the binaries are not in your current path use with --with-X flags). for me this is

./waf configure --with-inkscape /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/bin --with-madgraph=/Users/lukas/heptools/madgraph-1.5.10    

and run waf

./waf

this should produce results in the results directory.
