FeynEdit—a tool for drawing Feynman diagrams

We describe the FeynEdit tool for drawing Feynman diagrams. Input and output is done using the macros of FeynArts, which also implies that diagrams drawn by FeynArts can be edited with FeynEdit. The code can be conveniently transferred using copy-and-paste.Program summaryProgram title: FeynEditCatalogue identifier: AEBX_v1_0Program summary URL:http://cpc.cs.qub.ac.uk/summaries/AEBX_v1_0.htmlProgram obtainable from: CPC Program Library, Queen's University, Belfast, N. IrelandLicensing provisions: Standard CPC licence, http://cpc.cs.qub.ac.uk/licence/licence.htmlNo. of lines in distributed program, including test data, etc.: 31 729No. of bytes in distributed program, including test data, etc.: 500 240Distribution format: tar.gzProgramming language: JavaComputer: All Java-capable platformsOperating system: Linux, Mac OS, WindowsRAM: 1–2 MBytesClassification: 4.4Nature of problem: Graphical editing of Feynman diagrams.Solution method: The user copy-and-pastes the LaTeX code of the Feynman diagram into the editor, clicks a button to visualize the diagram, modifies it using the mouse, and finally copy-and-pastes it back into the text.Restrictions: Propagators are presently drawn only as straight lines. This is largely for performance reasons and may be added in a future version. It is not a serious deficit because that information can easily be added in the LaTeX code.Unusual features: Uses FeynArts' LaTeX representation for input and outputRunning time: User-dependent
