Description
We present MadAnalysis 5, a new framework for phenomenological inves-
tigations at particle colliders. Based on a C++ kernel, this program allows
to efficiently perform, in a straightforward and user-friendly fashion, sophis-
ticated physics analyses of event files such as those generated by a large class
of Monte Carlo event generators. MadAnalysis 5 comes with two modes
of running. The first one, easier to handle, uses the strengths of a powerful
Python interface in order to implement the analysis by the mean of a set
of intuitive commands. The second one requires to implement the analysis
in the C++ programming language, directly within the core of the anal-
ysis framework. This opens unlimited possibilities concerning the level of
complexity which can be reached by the analysis, being only limited by the
programming skills and the originality of the user.
