Here you can download the latest version of the PDFxTMDLib library and the accompanying plotter.

PDFxTMDLib Library

The source code for PDFxTMDLib is available on GitHub. You can clone the repository or download a release.

QtPDFxTMDPlotter

A Qt/QML-based graphical interface for interactive visualization of PDF calculations.

PDF Sets

PDFxTMDLib works with both collinear PDF sets and TMD sets. For detailed information about supported formats, directory structure, and configuration options, visit our PDF Setspage.

Collinear PDF Sets

PDFxTMDLib fully supports all LHAPDF sets. You can download collinear PDF sets directly from the LHAPDF website.

TMD Sets

The format lhagrid_tmd1 which TMD sets are based on it is in fact generalization of lhagrid1 format, where it is extended to 3D. The simple program is available for download to show how one can generate according to this format and use PDFxTMDLib (lhagrid_tmd_1_gen.cpp). The following TMD sets which are based on the TMDLib sets are currently available for download:

All TMD sets are hosted directly on this website for faster and more reliable downloads. After downloading, extract the TMD sets to one of the directories specified in your config.yamlfile. See the PDF Sets page for configuration details.

New TMD sets will be announced on this website as they become available.

Pythia v-8.3 with PDFxTMD

PDFxTMDLib is currently integrated into Pythia v-8.3. It is not an official source of pythia, but developed by us to check the performance and validity of PDFxTMDLib against LHAPDF. Here is a linkto download.
