The Implementation of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model in FeynArts and FormCalc
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the implementation of the MSSM in the diagram generator FeynArts and the calculational tool FormCalc. This extension allows to perform loop calculations of MSSM processes almost fully automatically. The actual implementation has two aspects: The MSSM Feynman rules are specified in a new model file for FeynArts. The computation of the parameters in the MSSM Lagrangian from the input parameters is realized as a Fortran subroutine in the framework of FormCalc. The model file does not depend on the latter, however, and can be used even if one does not want to continue the calculation with FormCalc. The Feynman rules have been entered in a very generic way to allow e.g. scenarios with complex parameters, and have been tested extensively by reproducing known results for several non-trivial scattering processes. PACS numbers: 12.60.Jv, 02.70.–c.

Calculating two- and three-body decays with FeynArts and FormCalc
The Feynman diagram generator FeynArts and the computer algebra program FormCalc allow for an automatic computation of 2→ 2 and 2→ 3 scattering processes in High Energy Physics. We have extended this package by four new kinematical routines and adapted one existing routine in order to accomodate also twoand three-body decays of massive particles. This makes it possible to compute automatically ...
متن کاملA comprehensive approach to new physics simulations
We describe a framework to develop, implement and validate any perturbative Lagrangian-based particle physics model for further theoretical, phenomenological and experimental studies. The starting point is FeynRules, a Mathematica package that allows to generate Feynman rules for any Lagrangian and then, through dedicated interfaces, automatically pass the corresponding relevant information to ...
متن کاملAutomatic Loop Calculations with FeynArts, FormCalc, and LoopTools
This article describes three Mathematica packages for the automatic calculation of one-loop Feynman diagrams: the diagrams are generated with FeynArts, algebraically simplified with FormCalc, and finally evaluated numerically using the LoopTools package. The calculations are performed analytically as far as possible, with results given in a form well suited for numerical evaluation. The latter ...
متن کاملExcursions into FeynArts and FormCalc
FeynArts [1] and FormCalc [2] are programs for the generation and calculation of Feynman diagrams. The main problem they solve is the computation of the cross-section for a given process, and indeed this is meanwhile a heavily automated procedure that requires little user input. Feynman diagrams have a lot of other uses, however, and this note shows some examples of how to extend the capabiliti...
متن کاملSuperIso Relic: A program for calculating relic density and flavor physics observables in Supersymmetry
We describe SuperIso Relic, a public program for evaluation of relic density and flavour physics observables in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) and in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM). SuperIso Relic is an extension of the SuperIso program which adds to the flavour observables of SuperIso the computation of all possible...
