MCEEP Version 3.9
last updated: 5 February 2011

This version has been fully tested, except for the elastic ¹H(e,e'p) full-angular bremsstrahlung radiative code. This is the preferred version for any other feature.

For details, see: ~/mceep/distribute/README_v3_9 after downloading

Download the compiled RedHat5 3.9 MCEEP RedHat5 MCEEP v3.9
Download the self-extracting archive, mceep_v3_9.uu, to your home directory or to any directory where you want the "mceep" tree to be located.

If you want the Laget d(e,e'p) grid calculations, download:

laget_pwia.tar.gz

laget_pfsi.tar.gz

You will need to create a directory and untar these files into it (xxxx=pwia or pfsi ...):

mkdir $mceep_dat/deut_laget/

mv laget_xxxx.tar.gz $mceep_dat/deut_laget/

cd $mceep_dat/deut_laget/

gunzip laget_xxxx.tar.gz

tar xvf laget_xxxx.tar (this will take a while)

(You can build the program in any directory and thereby keep previous versions intact.)

Type "chmod u+x mceep_v3_9.uu" (without the quotes).
Type "mceep_v3_9.uu"
You will be prompted for the type of operating system (hp, ultrix, osf1, sun, absoft, g77, sgi).

The above procedure will unpack the program and produce three executables:
                    ~/mceep/sources/mceep
                    ~/mceep/utilities/mceep_util
                    ~/mceep/systerr/systerr

To verify the port of mceep, type (from the ~/mceep/utilities/ directory):
"compare_v3_9"

After porting you will need to add three environment variables to your login script:

mceep_cmn=$mceep_home/mceep/cmn
mceep_dat=$mceep_home/mceep/dat
mceep_util=$mceep_home/mceep/utilities
where $mceep_home refers to the directory from which you executed the build (does not have to be your home directory).

To convert MCEEP output to HBOOK format, type (from the directory where your input/output is located):
"~/mceep/utilities/make_hbook input_file", where "input_file" is the mceep input file PREFIX.

Note: As of Version 3.0 MCEEP will overwrite existing output. Also, MCEEP will read input from the current directory and place output there as well.

Possible problems with porting:

The mceep_util program links to the CERNLIB package. If this link fails, edit the file "~/mceep/utilities/makefile" so that the CERN libraries are properly referenced. (This program can be used to generate an HBOOK file from the standard MCEEP output files. This is automated by the script: "~/mceep/utilities/make_hbook".) After editing the makefile, execute make in the utilities directory.
The make program should be GNU Make. The path for this may be wrong. In this case, you can execute make directly in the sources and utilities directories.
A "homemade" script (~/mceep/distribute/makemf) is used to generate the makefiles. This script uses the "awk" utility to do this. Depending on your system, this utility is referred to as "awk" or "nawk". It's possible that the default is wrong, in which case you need to modify the makemf script - it's obvious how to do this, once you look at the beginning of makemf (trust me). Once makemf is modified, you can build the makefile by executing: "makemf opsys mceep" from the sources directory and "makemf opsys mceep_util" from the utilities directory, where "opsys" is one of: hp, ultrix, osf1, sun, absoft,g77. After producing the makefiles, execute make in the sources and utilities directories.

For the Linux Absoft version, you will need the Absoft Fortran 77 compiler (Absoft Pro Fortran 5.0 or higher with the 4.4 or higher version of the compiler). Otherwise you can use the g77 option.
