Re: hepparticles and maybemath
by Robin Fairbairns 22 Feb '05

22 Feb '05

Andy Buckley has submitted upgrades of the hepparticles and maybemath packages. Change information is: > ---- > maybemath provides macros for making math mode expressions bold, > upright, italic or sans-serif according to context. This release adds > the sans-serif feature and fixes several bugs which were affecting > robustness in specific nested contexts. > ---- > > ---- > hepparticles is a set of macros for typesetting high energy physics > particle names. This release largely overhauls the internal package > structure, providing extremely flexible particle typesetting structures > for standard particles, anti-particles, SUSY particles and their > anti-particles (both as generic labels and as concrete names) and for > constructing resonance specifiers. In addition, several low-level macros > are exposed for the few cases in which the package does not provide the > required semantic structures. Whether an upright or italic convention is > used for specific particle names can be specified as a package option. > ---- i've installed the two new versions in macros/latex/contrib/(hepparticles|maybemath)/ here at cambridge. they will be at the other ctan sites soon, and at mirrors over the next few days. thanks, Andy, for the updates.
