Version 3 of FORM is introduced. It contains many new features that are inspired by current developments in the methodology of computations in quantum field theory. A number of these features is discussed in combination with examples. In addition the distribution contains a number of general purpose packages. These are described shortly.

FormCalc is a Mathematica package for the automatic computation of tree-level and one-loop Feynman amplitudes. It accepts diagrams generated by FeynArts, simplifies them, and generates a complete Fortran code for their numerical evaluation. Version 4 includes new features which enhance performance, convenience of use, and modularity/code reusability.

FORM, a symbolic manipulation system, has been widely used in a lot of calculations for High Energy Physics due to its high performance and fficient design. Mathematica, another computational software program, has also widely been used, but more for reasons of generality and user-friendliness than for speed. Especially calculations involving tensors and noncommutative operations like calculating Dirac traces can be rather slow in Mathematica, compared to FORM. In this article...

The FormCalc package automates the computation of FeynArts amplitudes up to one loop including the generation of a Fortran code for the numerical evaluation of the squared matrix element. Major new or enhanced features in Version 5 are: iterative build-up of essentially arbitrary phase-spaces including cuts, convolution with density functions, and uniform treatment of kinematical variables. The LoopTools library supplies the one-loop integrals necessary for evaluating the squ...
