Descripción
Sumario:We describe the development of the LHAPDF library from its initial implementation following the Les Houches meeting in 2001 to its present state as a functional replacement for PDFLIB. Brief details are given of how to install and use the library together with the PDF sets available. We also describe LHAGLUE, an add-on PDFLIB look-a-like interface to LHAPDF, which facilitates using LHAPDF with existing Monte Carlo generators such as PYTHIA and HERWIG.
