MCPLOTS: a particle physics resource based on volunteer computing
The mcplots. cern. ch web site (mcplots) provides a simple online repository of plots made
with high-energy-physics event generators, comparing them to a wide variety of
experimental data. The repository is based on the hepdata online database of experimental
results and on the rivet Monte Carlo analysis tool. The repository is continually updated and
relies on computing power donated by volunteers, via the lhc@ home 2.0 platform.
