Computational particle physics

Computational particle physics is, for particle physics, both a specific branch and an interdisciplinary field relying on computer science, theoretical and experimental particle physics and mathematics. Like computational chemistry or computational biology, it includes the methods and computing tools developed in and used by particle physics research. The main fields of computational particle physics are: lattice field theory (numerical computations), automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay (computer algebra) and event generators (stochastic methods).
