A simple tool to create scale plot in high energy physics

Usage

• Please put your data file in the ~/.hepscale
• ''hepscale ls .'' will list your datafiles
• If you have a data file named ''mass.dat'', you can plot with ''hepscale plot mass.dat''

Example of data file:

(mass.dat)

""" LinePlot Mass 4 13 MassUnit l red 1 TeV $$ l red 1 GeV $$ l red 1 MeV $$ l red 100 MeV $$ p red 125.5 GeV $H^0$ p red 0.5 MeV $e$ p red 80.377 GeV $W$ p red 91.18 GeV $Z$ p red 1776.86 MeV $\tau$ p red 105.65 MeV $\mu$ p red 134.98 MeV $\pi^0$ p red 497.6 MeV $K^0$ p red 3097 MeV $J/\psi$ p red 9460.3 MeV $\Upsilon(1S)$% """

• Explanations:
• l1: LinePlot: For future extension
• l2: Mass: title of the plot
• l3: 4 13: plot the scale from 1e4 to 1e13, the unit varying, so please just try these two number
• l3: MassUnit: use mass as unit, other option: TimeUnit, LengthUnit
• l4-...: the first symbol l,p or i means the point style. l means to draw a verticle line, p mean to draw the physics quantity, i mean to draw the quantity as 1/x.
