The criterium for data to be included is that it be data of a publishable form and not preliminary data. Data from conferences often fall into the latter category. If it is possible that data will change following peer review, it may be better to delay HepData submission until after journal acceptance. Generally we require only a flat file containing the numerical values. Postscript and pdf figures are not suitable. However, supplementary files of any format (.ps, .pdf, .root, .C, .slha, etc.) can be placed in a web directory linked from the main HepData record. <p/> -Generally we require only a flat file containing the numerical values.

Data submissions provided in text formats closer to the "input" format (<i>not</i> the "plain text" format) can therefore be entered more quickly into the database. You can start by looking at the "input" file for an existing record that is similar to your submitted data. An annotated <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/sample.input">sample input file</a> is available, as is a <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/6150.pl">Perl script</a> or <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/6150.py">Python script</a> used to produce the "input" file from the <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/zz.txt">original submission</a>.

It is useful to pro vide key metadata for each table such as a caption, the process being considered (initial-state and final-state particles), important kinematic cuts, and headers for the x and y columns specifying the quantity with units. Multiple x and y values can be given in the same row separated by semicolons and non-existent entries can be indicated by dashes "-". Numerical values should be given with an appropriate and not excessive number of significant figures (in general, a maximum of 4), avoiding giving more decimal places for the errors than the central values. An <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/input">online form</a> is available to test data input. Click on "Browse..." to select your input file, followed by "Upload" and "Process", then click "Display" for the first 10 tables, or "All" for the whole record. Please note that this <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/input">online form</a> is only for testing purposes, and the final submittal to HepData must still be done by email to hepdata(at)projects.hepforge.org. +Any text files you send us will be processed into a standard format, which can be seen from the "input" link on any of the existing records.

Please note that this <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/input">online form</a> is only for testing purposes and a record will be overwritten by the next person usi ng the system, unless a valid paper ID and password are specified (see below). <p/> A Python <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/hepconverter.py">script</a> has been written by Mike Flowerdew (ATLAS) to convert objects in .root files to the HepData "input" format. A test .root file can be made with another Python <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/MakeTestFile.py">script</a> and some brief usage <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/hepconverternotes.txt">notes</a> are provided. <p/> A ROOT TGraph-like <a href="http://cern.ch/cholm/root/gse/html/">class</a> has been written by Christian Holm Christensen (ALICE) to hold results with statistical and systematic errors and with the ability to import from and export to the HepData "input" format. <p/> It is possible to use LaTeX mathematical expressions in the "input" file, which will be rendered using <a href="http://www.mathjax.org">MathJax</a> in the HTML display; see <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/view/ins1298811">here</a> or <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/view/ins1306294">here</a> for example records that use LaTeX. +<p/> +We are starting to move to an automated submission system. Administrator accounts, intended to be one per experiment, or one per physics group for large experiments, can be requested by sending the desired username and associated email address to hepdata(at)projects.hepforge.org, then <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/manage">log in</a>. The encoder can then upload data in the "input" format from the <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/input">online form</a> using the paper ID and password provided by the administrator of their experiment or physics group. Some brief usage <a href="http://hepdata.cedar.ac.uk/resource/submissionnotes.txt">notes</a> give more information. </td> </tr> </table>
