Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libcojets2-dev on Ubuntu 18.04.

What is libcojets2-dev

libcojets2-dev is:

COJETS is a Monte Carlo library which simulates pbar-p and p-p interactions at high energy. The interaction process is first calculated at the parton level by means of perturbative QCD and the Weinberg-Salam model for electroweak interactions. Partons are then independently fragmented into jets of hadrons, according to the Field-Feynman model, and the beam jets contribution is added, according to a longitudinal phase-space model. Multiple QCD radiation of initial and final partons is included.

This is the static version of the library. The package also includes FORTRAN header files and documentation for COJETS.
