+CheckMATE
+=======
+
+[![AUR badge][AUR badge]][AUR]
+
+CheckMATE installer Arch Linux.
+
+[CheckMATE][homepage] (Check Models At Terascale Energies) is a program package
+which accepts simulated event files in many formats for any given model. The
+program then determines whether the model is excluded or not at 95% C.L. by
+comparing to many recent experimental analyses. Furthermore the program can
+calculate confidence limits and provide detailed information about signal
+regions of interest. It is simple to use and the program structure allows for
+easy extensions to upcoming LHC results in the future.
+
+
+CheckMATE is built upon the tools and hard work of many people. If CheckMATE is used in your publication it is important that all of the following citations are included:
