Numerical evaluation of massive multi-loop integrals with SecDec

Abstract

The program package SecDec is presented, allowing the numerical evaluation of multi-loop integrals. The restriction to Euclidean kinematics of version 1.0 has been lifted: thresholds can be handled by an automated deformation of the integration contour into the complex plane. Other new features of the program, which go beyond the standard decomposition of loop integrals, are also described. The program is publicly available at http://secdec.hepforge.org.Comment: 6 pages, proceedings of the 11th DESY workshop "Loops and Legs in Quantum Field Theory", April 2012, Wernigerode, German
