Abstract
Measurements at particle collider experiments, even if primarily aimed at understanding Standard Model processes,
can have a high degree of model independence, and implicitly contain information about
potential contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model.
The CONTUR package allows users to benefit from the hundreds of measurements preserved in the RIVET library to
test new models against the bank of LHC measurements to date. This method has proven to be very effective
in several recent publications from the CONTUR team, but ultimately, for this approach to be successful, the authors believe that
the CONTUR tool needs to be accessible to the wider high energy physics community.
As such, this manual accompanies the first user-facing version: CONTUR v2.
It describes the design choices that have been made,
as well as detailing pitfalls and common issues to avoid.
The authors hope that with the help of this documentation, external groups will be able to run their own CONTUR studies, for example when
proposing a new model, or pitching a new search.
