Automatic Loop Calculations with FeynArts, FormCalc, and LoopTools

چکیده

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 is straightforward with the utility programs provided by FormCalc (e.g. for translation into Fortran code) and the implementations of the one-loop integrals in LoopTools. The programs are also equipped for calculations in supersymmetric models.

Generating and Calculating One-loop Feynman Diagrams with FeynArts, FormCalc, and LoopTools

A set of programs is presented for automatically generating and calculating Feynman diagrams. Diagrams are generated with FeynArts, then algebraically simplified using a combination of Mathematica and FORM implemented in the package FormCalc, and finally evaluated numerically using the LoopTools package. FormCalc works either in dimensional regularization or in constrained differential renormal...

News from FormCalc and LoopTools

The FormCalc package automates the computation of FeynArts amplitudes up to one loop including the generation of a Fortran code for the numerical evaluation of the squared matrix element. Major new or enhanced features in Version 5 are: iterative build-up of essentially arbitrary phase-spaces including cuts, convolution with density functions, and uniform treatment of kinematical variables. The...

The Implementation of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model in FeynArts and FormCalc

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 ...

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 ...
