The Prompt Lepton Cookbook

We review the calculation of the prompt lepton flux produced in the atmosphere by the semileptonic decay of charmed particles, describing side by side the many intermediary ingredients, used by different authors, not only for the charm production model but also for the atmospheric particle showering process. We provide guidelines to further works on high-energy neutrino phe-nomenology, in the f...

Excerpts from the TXL Cookbook

While source transformation systems and languages like DMS, Stratego, ASF + SDF, Rascal and TXL provide a general, powerful base from which to attack a wide range of analysis, transformation and migration problems in the hands of an expert, new users often find it difficult to see how these tools can be applied to their particular kind of problem.
