===== Material and links for the Friday tutorials =====

On Friday afternoon we will conduct a tutorial for how to run physics processes with FeynRules, MadGraph, and CalcHEP (and of course PYTHIA) and process the events through the PGS simulation program.  Here are links to the relevant programs, and to two data files that will be used in the tutorial:
