چکیده

FeynRules is a Mathematica-based package which addresses the implementation of particle physics models, which are given in the form of a list of fields, parameters and a Lagrangian, into high-energy physics tools. It calculates the underlying Feynman rules and outputs them to a form appropriate for various programs such as CalcHep, FeynArts, MadGraph, Sherpa and Whizard. Since the original version, many new features have been added: support for two-component fermions, spin-3/2 and spin-2 fields, superspace notation and calculations, automatic mass diagonalization, completely general FeynArts output, a new universal FeynRules output interface, a new Whizard interface, automatic 1 → 2 decay width calculation, improved speed and efficiency, new guidelines for validation and a new web-based validation package. With this feature set, FeynRules enables models to go from theory to simulation and comparison with experiment quickly, efficiently and accurately.

supersymmetric standard model?

R-parity stands as an ad hoc assumption in the most popular version of the supersymmetric standard model. More than fifteen years’ studies of R-parity violations have been restricted to various limiting scenarios. We illustrate how the single-VEV parametrization provides a workable framework to analyze the phenomenology of the complete theory of supersymmetry without R-parity. In our comprehens...

FeynRules - Feynman rules made easy

In this paper we present FeynRules, a new Mathematica package that facilitates the implementation of new particle physics models. After the user implements the basic model information (e.g. particle content, parameters and Lagrangian), FeynRules derives the Feynman rules and stores them in a generic form suitable for translation to any Feynman diagram calculation program. The model can then be ...

Beyond standard model calculations with Sherpa

We present a fully automated framework as part of the Sherpa event generator for the computation of tree-level cross sections in Beyond Standard Model scenarios, making use of model information given in the Universal FeynRules Output format. Elementary vertices are implemented into C++ code automatically and provided to the matrix-element generator Comix at runtime. Widths and branching ratios ...

TauDecay: a library to simulate polarized tau decays via FeynRules and MadGraph5

TAUDECAY is a library of helicity amplitudes to simulate polarized tau decays, constructed in the FEYNRULES and MADGRAPH5 framework. Together with the leptonic mode, the decay library includes the main hadronic modes, τ → ντ + π , 2π , and 3π , which are introduced as effective vertices by using FEYNRULES. The model file allows us to simulate tau decays when the on-shell tau production is kinem...

Lars Schwabe and Olaf Blanke “[I]t has become next to impossible for a single mind fully to command more than a small specialized portion of it. I can see no other escape from this dilemma [...] than that some of us should venture to embark on a synthesis of facts and theories, albeit with second-hand an...
