HighPT is aMathematica package for the analysis of high-energy data of semileptonic transitions at hadron colliders. It allows to compute high-p_T tail observables for semileptonic processes, i.e. Drell-Yan cross sections, for dilepton and monolepton final states, at the LHC.

More information can be found on theHighPT website athttps://highpt.github.io.

These observables can be calculated within:

• The Standard Model Effective Field Theory at tree level, including the relevant energy-enhanced operators up to dimension eight to ensure a consistent description of the cross section including terms of$\mathcal{O}(\Lambda^{−4})$ in the EFT cutoff scale$\Lambda$.
• BSM models with new tree-level mediators, that can be resolved at LHC energies, enabling the computation of the cross section including the full propagation effects of these new particles. Currently only leptoquark mediators are implemented. The available mediator masses are:
  • 1 TeV
  • 2 TeV
  • 3 TeV
  • 4 TeV [coming soon]
  • 5 TeV [coming soon]

The main routines ofHighPT allow to compute:

• differential cross sections,
• integrated cross sections,
• event yields,
• likelihoods.

The experimental searches for heavy resonances, based on the full LHC run-II data gathered by ATLAS or CMS, recasted and implemented inHighPT are:

The simplest way to download and installHighPT is to run the following command in aMathematica session:

Import["https://github.com/HighPT/HighPT/raw/master/install.m"]

This will download and installHighPT in the Applications folder ofMathematica's base directory.Alternatively you can also download the package manually from this website. In this case the path to the directory containing theHighPT code must be specified every time before loading the package by:

PrependTo[$Path,"path/to/HighPT/directory"]

To loadHighPT use the command:

<<HighPT`

The complete set of routines and usage examples can be found in[arXiv:2207.10756]. This repository also contains several example notebook that can serve as templates.
