Abstract. The LanHEP program version 3.0 for Feynman rules generation from the La- grangian is described. It reads the Lagrangian written in a compact form, close to the one used arXiv:0805.0555v1 [hep-ph] 5 May 2008 in publications. It means that Lagrangian terms can be written with summation over indices of broken symmetries and using special symbols for complicated expressions, such as covariant derivative and strength tensor for gauge fields. Supersymmetric theories can be described using the superpotential formalism and the 2-component fermion notation. The output is Feynman rules in terms of physical fields and independent parameters in the form of CompHEP model files, which allows one to start calculations of processes in the new physical model. Alter- natively, Feynman rules can be generated in FeynArts format or as LaTeX table. One-loop counterterms can be generated in FeynArts format. E-mail:

CompHEP allows symbolic computation of the matrix element squared of any process with up to 6 incoming and outgoing particles for a given physical model (i.e.
