 INTRODUCTION
1
This bundle for LATEX has two goals:

1. Provide students with an easy-to-use template for their Mas-

ter’s or PhD thesis. (Though it might also be used by other types
of authors for reports, books, etc.)

2. Provide a classic, high-quality typographic style that is inspired

by bringhurst:2002’s “The Elements of Typographic Style” [bringhurst:2002].
Internal Migration
Reconciliation for
The bundle is configured to run with a full MiKTEX or TEXLive1 in- the Kintampo HDSS
stallation right away and, therefore, it uses only freely available fonts. Core Datasets using
Probabilistic Record
(Minion fans can easily adjust the style to their needs.)
Linkage Techniques
People interested only in the nice style and not the whole bundle version 4.2
can now use the style stand-alone via the file classicthesis.sty.
This works now also with “plain” LATEX.
As of version 3.0, classicthesis can also be easily used with LYX2
thanks to Nicholas Mariette and Ivo Pletikosić. The LYX version of
this manual will contain more information on the details.
This should enable anyone with a basic knowledge of LATEX 2ε or
LYX to produce beautiful documents without too much effort. In the
end, this is my overall goal: more beautiful documents, especially
theses, as I am tired of seeing so many ugly ones.
The whole template and the used style is released under the GNU
General Public License.
If you like the style then I would appreciate a postcard:

That’s what

about, right?

with most other distributions and, thus, with most systems LATEX is available for.

 4 introduction

important note: Some things of this style might look unusual

at first glance, many people feel so in the beginning. However, all
things are intentionally designed to be as they are, especially these:

• No bold fonts are used. Italics or spaced small caps do the job
quite well.

• The size of the text body is intentionally shaped like it is. It

supports both legibility and allows a reasonable amount of in-
formation to be on a page. And, no: the lines are not too short.

• The tables intentionally do not use vertical or double rules. See

the documentation for the booktabs package for a nice discus-
sion of this topic.3

• And last but not least, to provide the reader with a way easier
access to page numbers in the table of contents, the page num-
bers are right behind the titles. Yes, they are not neatly aligned
at the right side and they are not connected with dots that help
the eye to bridge a distance that is not necessary. If you are still
not convinced: is your reader interested in the page number or
does she want to sum the numbers up?

Therefore, please do not break the beauty of the style by changing

these things unless you really know what you are doing! Please.

yet another important note: Since classicthesis’ first re-

lease in 2006, many things have changed in the LATEX world. Trying to
keep up-to-date, classicthesis grew and evolved into many direc-
tions, trying to stay (some kind of) stable and be compatible with its
port to LYX. However, there are still many remains from older times
in the code, many dirty workarounds here and there, and several
other things I am absolutely not proud of (for example my unwise
An outlook into the combination of KOMA and titlesec etc.).
future of Currently, I am looking into how to completely re-design and re-
classicthesis.
implement classicthesis making it easier to maintain and to use.
As a general idea, classicthesis.sty should be developed and dis-
tributed separately from the template bundle itself. Excellent spin-
offs such as arsclassica could also be integrated (with permission
by their authors) as format configurations. Also, current trends of
microtype, fontspec, etc. should be included as well. As I am not
really into deep LATEX programming, I will reach out to the LATEX com-
munity for their expertise and help.

 1.1 organization 5

1.1 organization

A very important factor for successful thesis writing is the organiza-

tion of the material. This template suggests a structure as the follow-
ing: You can use these
margins for
• Chapters/ is where all the “real” content goes in separate files summaries of the
such as Chapter01.tex etc. text body. . .

• FrontBackMatter/ is where all the stuff goes that surrounds the

“real” content, such as the acknowledgments, dedication, etc.

• gfx/ is where you put all the graphics you use in the thesis.
Maybe they should be organized into subfolders depending on
the chapter they are used in, if you have a lot of graphics.

• Bibliography.bib: the BibTEX database to organize all the ref-

erences you might want to cite.

• classicthesis.sty: the style definition to get this awesome

look and feel. Does not only work with this thesis template but
also on its own (see folder Examples). Bonus: works with both
LATEX and pdfLATEX. . . and LYX.

• ClassicThesis.tcp a TEXnicCenter project file. Great tool and

it’s free!

• ClassicThesis.tex: the main file of your thesis where all gets

bundled together.

• classicthesis-config.tex: a central place to load all nifty pack-

ages that are used.
Make your changes and adjustments here. This means that you spec-
ify here the options you want to load classicthesis.sty with.
You also adjust the title of your thesis, your name, and all simi-
lar information here. Refer to Section 1.3 for more information.
This had to change as of version 3.0 in order to enable an easy
transition from the “basic” style to LYX.

In total, this should get you started in no time.

[ February 5, 2017 at 8:31 – classicthesis version 4.2 ]

 6 introduction

1.2 style options

There are a couple of options for classicthesis.sty that allow for a

. . . or your bit of freedom concerning the layout:
supervisor might use
the margins for some • General:
comments of her
own while reading.
– drafting: prints the date and time at the bottom of each
page, so you always know which version you are dealing
with. Might come in handy not to give your Prof. that old
draft.

• Parts and Chapters:

– parts: if you use Part divisions for your document, you
should choose this option. (Cannot be used together with
nochapters.)
– nochapters: allows to use the look-and-feel with classes
that do not use chapters, e. g., for articles. Automatically
turns off a couple of other options: eulerchapternumbers,
linedheaders, listsseparated, and parts.
– linedheaders: changes the look of the chapter headings a
bit by adding a horizontal line above the chapter title. The
chapter number will also be moved to the top of the page,
above the chapter title.

• Typography:
– eulerchapternumbers: use figures from Hermann Zapf’s
Euler math font for the chapter numbers. By default, old
style figures from the Palatino font are used.
– beramono: loads Bera Mono as typewriter font. (Default set-
ting is using the standard CM typewriter font.)
– eulermath: loads the awesome Euler fonts for math. Pala-
tino is used as default font.
– pdfspacing: makes use of pdftex’ letter spacing capabilities
via the microtype package.4 This fixes some serious issues
regarding math formulæ etc. (e. g., “ß”) in headers.
– minionprospacing: uses the internal textssc command of
the MinionPro package for letter spacing. This automati-
cally enables the minionpro option, overriding pdfspacing.

• Table of Contents:
– tocaligned: aligns the whole table of contents on the left
side. Some people like that, some don’t.
– dottedtoc: sets pagenumbers flushed right in the table of
contents.
4 Use microtype’s DVIoutput option to generate DVI with pdftex.

[ February 5, 2017 at 8:31 – classicthesis version 4.2 ]

 1.3 customization 7

– manychapters: if you need more than nine chapters for

your document, you might not be happy with the spacing
between the chapter number and the chapter title in the Ta-
ble of Contents. This option allows for additional space in
this context. However, it does not look as “perfect” if you
use \parts for structuring your document.

• Floats:
– listings: loads the listings package (if not already done)
and configures the List of Listings accordingly.
– floatperchapter: activates numbering per chapter for all
floats such as figures, tables, and listings (if used).
– subfig(ure): is passed to the tocloft package to enable
compatibility with the subfig(ure) package. Use this op-
tion if you want use classicthesis with the subfig pack-
age.

The best way to figure these options out is to try the different possi-
bilities and see what you and your supervisor like best.
In order to make things easier, classicthesis-config.tex contains
some useful commands that might help you.

1.3 customization

This section will show you some hints how to adapt classicthesis
to your needs.
The file classicthesis.sty contains the core functionality of the
style and in most cases will be left intact, whereas the file classic-
thesis-config.tex is used for some common user customizations.
The first customization you are about to make is to alter the docu-
ment title, author name, and other thesis details. In order to do this,
replace the data in the following lines of classicthesis-config.tex: Modifications in
classic-
% **************************************************
thesis-config.tex
% 2. Personal data and user ad-hoc commands
% **************************************************
\newcommand{\myTitle}{A Classic Thesis Style\xspace}
\newcommand{\mySubtitle}{An Homage to...\xspace}

Further customization can be made in classicthesis-config.tex

by choosing the options to classicthesis.sty (see Section 1.2) in a
line that looks like this:
\PassOptionsToPackage{eulerchapternumbers,drafting,listings,
subfig,eulermath,parts}{classicthesis}

Many other customizations in classicthesis-config.tex are pos-

sible, but you should be careful making changes there, since some
changes could cause errors.

[ February 5, 2017 at 8:31 – classicthesis version 4.2 ]

 8 introduction

Modifications in Finally, changes can be made in the file classicthesis.sty, al-

classicthesis.sty though this is mostly not designed for user customization. The main
change that might be made here is the text-block size, for example, to
get longer lines of text.

1.4 issues

This section will list some information about problems using classic-
thesis in general or using it with other packages.
Beta versions of classicthesis can be found at Bitbucket:

https://bitbucket.org/amiede/classicthesis/

There, you can also post serious bugs and problems you encounter.

Compatibility with the glossaries Package

If you want to use the glossaries package, take care of loading it

with the following options:
\usepackage[style=long,nolist]{glossaries}

Thanks to Sven Staehs for this information.

Compatibility with the (Spanish) babel Package

Spanish languages need an extra option in order to work with this

template:
\usepackage[spanish,es-lcroman]{babel}

Thanks to an unknown person for this information (via the issue re-
porting).

further information for using classicthesis with span-

ish (in addition to the above) In the file ClassicThesis.tex
activate the language:
\selectlanguage{spanish}

If there are issues changing \tablename, e. g., using this:

\renewcommand{\tablename}{Tabla}

This can be solved by passing es-tabla parameter to babel:

\PassOptionsToPackage{es-tabla,spanish,es-lcroman,english}{
babel}
\usepackage{babel}

But it is also necessary to set spanish in the \documentclass.

Thanks to Alvaro Jaramillo Duque for this information.

[ February 5, 2017 at 8:31 – classicthesis version 4.2 ]

 1.5 future work 9

Compatibility with the pdfsync Package

Using the pdfsync package leads to linebreaking problems with the

graffito command. Thanks to Henrik Schumacher for this informa-
tion.

1.5 future work

So far, this is a quite stable version that served a couple of people

well during their thesis time. However, some things are still not as
they should be. Proper documentation in the standard format is still
missing. In the long run, the style should probably be published sepa-
rately, with the template bundle being only an application of the style.
Alas, there is no time for that at the moment. . . it could be a nice task
for a small group of LATEXnicians.
Please do not send me email with questions concerning LATEX or
the template, as I do not have time for an answer. But if you have
comments, suggestions, or improvements for the style or the template
in general, do not hesitate to write them on that postcard of yours.

1.6 beyond a thesis

The layout of classicthesis.sty can be easily used without the

framework of this template. A few examples where it was used to
typeset an article, a book or a curriculum vitae can be found in
the folder Examples. The examples have been tested with latex and
pdflatex and are easy to compile. To encourage you even more, PDFs
built from the sources can be found in the same folder.

3.1 some formulas

Due to the statistical nature of ionisation energy loss, large fluctu-

ations can occur in the amount of energy deposited by a particle
traversing an absorber element1 . Continuous processes such as multi-
ple scattering and energy loss play a relevant role in the longitudinal
and lateral development of electromagnetic and hadronic showers,
and in the case of sampling calorimeters the measured resolution
can be significantly affected by such fluctuations in their active lay-
ers. The description of ionisation fluctuations is characterised by the
significance parameter κ, which is proportional to the ratio of mean
energy loss to the maximum allowed energy transfer in a single colli-
sion with an atomic electron: You might get

where γ = E/mx , E is energy and mx the mass of the incident par-

[ February 5, 2017 at 8:31 – classicthesis version 4.2 ]

18 math test chapter

κ measures the contribution of the collisions with energy transfer

close to Emax . For a given absorber, κ tends towards large values if δx
is large and/or if β is small. Likewise, κ tends towards zero if δx is
small and/or if β approaches 1.
The value of κ distinguishes two regimes which occur in the de-
scription of ionisation fluctuations:

1. A large number of collisions involving the loss of all or most of

the incident particle energy during the traversal of an absorber.
As the total energy transfer is composed of a multitude of small
energy losses, we can apply the central limit theorem and de-
scribe the fluctuations by a Gaussian distribution. This case is
applicable to non-relativistic particles and is described by the
inequality κ > 10 (i. e., when the mean energy loss in the ab-
sorber is greater than the maximum energy transfer in a single
collision).

2. Particles traversing thin counters and incident electrons under

any conditions.
The relevant inequalities and distributions are 0.01 < κ < 10,
Vavilov distribution, and κ < 0.01, Landau distribution.

3.2 various mathematical examples

If n > 2, the identity

 
t[u1 , . . . , un ] = t t[u1 , . . . , un1 ], t[u2 , . . . , un ]

defines t[u1 , . . . , un ] recursively, and it can be shown that the alterna-

tive definition
 
t[u1 , . . . , un ] = t t[u1 , u2 ], . . . , t[un−1 , un ]

gives the same result.

a.2 another appendix section test

Equidem detraxit cu nam, vix eu delenit periculis. Eos ut vero con-

stituto, no vidit propriae complectitur sea. Diceret nonummy in has,
no qui eligendi recteque consetetur. Mel eu dictas suscipiantur, et sed
