tune-bootstrap

A reproducible scaffolding for Pythia8 hadronization parameter tuning using Rivet and Apprentice, targeting the Oscar HPC cluster at Brown University.

Installation

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:leblanc-lab/tune-bootstrap.git

Start an interactive compute node before running the bootstrap — it should not be run on the login node.

source interact.sh

Then install the full software stack:

./rivetbootstrap/rivet-bootstrap   # builds Rivet, YODA, LHAPDF, Pythia8 (~30–60 min)
./rivetbootstrap/install-pythia    # installs Pythia8
pip install -e apprentice/         # installs the Apprentice tuning library
source setup.sh                    # activates the environment

On subsequent logins, only source setup.sh is needed.
