 ## Present version and history of the past versions
 
-The present version is 5.6.8\
+The present version is 5.7.0\
 New features:
-- New 2D Lennard-Jones functions added
-- New benchmark notebook available
-- New function to visualizing the capacty heat for POTENTIAL calculations
-- Latex input support for compound variable names (i.e. x_{sub})
-- PyPI available development builds
-- PyPI binary distribution for arm64 macOS
-- Optional management of memory of dead points (in RAM or file)
-- Optional writing of dead points information
-- Optional writing of parameter statistics (mean, standard deviation, etc.)
-- Persistent option commands cache
+- Asynchronous parallel search of new points: each thread adds its new point to the main loop without waiting for the search of the other threads.
+This strongly improves the parallel efficiency when the search time of new points is very variable (e.g. Lennard-Jones clusters)
+- Thread private copies of live points and of search data (standard deviations, covariance matrix, clusters) allowing their update during the search of the other threads
+- Lock-free counting of the likelihood calls (faster parallel computation for fast likelihood functions)
+- Cluster analysis using all threads also when called during the parallel search
+- Bug fixes: periodic cluster analysis with slice sampling now performed, exit flags reset between tries, maximum number of steps checked also with suppressed output
+- New Lennard-Jones benchmark (17 atoms) in the benchmark notebook
