The main feature of this version of APFEL++ is a more solid treatment of the intrinsic heavy-flavour distributions. Specifically, any intrinsic contribution is left untouched below the respective threshold and matched consistently in correspondence of the threshold itself. Both forward and backward evolutions are supported. This update is particularly relevant for fits of fragmentation functions in which heavy-flavour distributions are sizeable and thus need to be fitted to data.

Other relevant changes are:

  • reorganisation of the configuration procedure through CMake,
  • more accurate Doxygen documentation,
  • extension of the technical documentation including matching conditions,
  • extension of the DoubleObject class to handle objects of different kinds.

(The name of this release, "King of the Pippins", is a french apple sort. This is indeed the first release of APFEL++ since my move to CEA Paris-Saclay. Somewhere in the back of my mind, though, this name also reminds me of a tiny little, ridiculous character with a delirium of omnipotence... pretty much like somebody that I came across some time ago.)
