How to Generalise? Model Definition
• Additions to global switches in block MODSEL:
3) Choice of particle content0: MSSM (default)1: NMSSM
4) R-parity violation0: R-parity conserved (default)1: R-parity violated
5) CP violation0: CP conserved (default)1: CP violated but only by CKM phase2: CP violated, general phases allowed
6) Flavour violation0: No (SUSY) flavour violation (default)1: Flavour violated
Q: Is one model sufficient for NMSSM, nMSSM, MNMSSM, …
In principle the models are qualitatively different, but still … same particle content?
Q: Is this adequate?
NB: For SLHA2 we are keeping RPV, CPV, and FLV ~ separate
NB: Yes.
There was some mention of an “MFV” option, but not clear how useful it
would be. (MFV would
not affect the general mixing
structure etc, all mixings
would still be generated radiatively)

How to Generalise? FLV
see next:: (Jaume)
• SUPER-CKM BASIS:– defined as basis in which quark Yukawas, in DRbar, are diagonal– NB: lepton mixing not treated yet (though see RPV).
• INPUT– VCKMIN: VCKM in PDG parametrisation (SM MSbar at MZ).– SMINPUTS: Include mu,d,s(2GeV)MSbar and mc(mc)MSbar
– NB: no explicit proposal yet for input of non-diagonal soft SUSY-breaking trilinear and bilinear terms, e.g. MSQ2IN, MSU2IN, MSD2IN?
• LAGRANGIAN PARAMETERS (all DRbar at scale Q) :– Yukawas: Super-CKM basis always diagonal (but same blocks as SLHA1)
– VCKM and bilinear SUSY-breaking MSQ2, MSU2, MSD2 matrices
– Matrices are symmetric: Give only i<j entries of Mij?
– Or entire matrix i ≤ j ? (i=j already in EXTPAR inconsistencies?)
– Hermiticity MSQ2(i,j)=MSQ2(j,i)* keep these matrices real?
NB: Not addressed
NB: No comments.
What Jaume is doing is
fine. Of course, I can always make my code able to deal with i=j
if I like.

• EW SCALE MIXING:– USQMIX: 6x6 up-squark mixing in super-CKM basis– DSQMIX: 6x6 down-squark mixing in super-CKM basis
• Problem: which quark is which? Enumeration of mass eigenstates.
How to Generalise? FLV
• (from Jaume): “Particle codes: we have taken the following convention: squarks ordered in growing mass, the PDG codes for squarks are used:”
Down squarks:
PDG code1000001 d_11000003 d_21000005 d_32000001 d_42000003 d_52000005 d_6
Up squarks:PDG Code
1000002 u_11000004 u_21000006 u_32000002 u_42000004 u_52000006 u_6

• INPUT– New input blocks for all RPV superpotential parameters, soft-
breaking parameters, and sneutrino vevs (prefix “RV” and suffix “IN”)
• LAGRANGIAN PARAMETERS (DRbar at scale Q) : – New output blocks for all RPV parameters (prefix “RV”)
• POLE MASSES– “new” sneutrinos: – 1000017, 1000018,1000019
• EW SCALE MIXING:– RVNMIX: 7x7 neutralino/neutrino– RVHMIX: 5x5 CP-even H/sneutrino – RVAMIX: 5x5 CP-odd H/sneutrino– RVLMIX: 8x8 Charged H/slepton– RVUMIX, RVVMIX: 5x5 chargino/lepton
How to Generalise? RPV
example…
NB: Include Golstones
NB: Inputs not independent,
due to constraints
from EWSB. 5 conditions instead of
normal 2. In MSSM, choice
between (mh1,mh2) or (mu,mA). Here
what to do? One
possibility: rotate to basis
where sneutrino vevs
disappear. Give usual
parameters. Other
possibilities? Allow
freedom? Werner and me
to make explicit
proposal.

• Mixing Example: Charged colour-singlet fermions
Flavour basise+ = e+ flavour eigenstatemu+ = mu+ -”-tau+ = tau+ -”--i ~w+ = charged wino ~h2+ = charged higgsino (up-type)
Mass basis (PDG numbers), strictly mass-ordered:-11 (e+) = lightest state (regardless of composition!)-13 (mu+) = 2nd lightest -15 (tau+) = 3rd lightest1000027 (chi1+) = … 1000037 (chi2+) = heaviest charged colour-singlet fermion
How to Generalise? RPV
NB: currently using U,V mixing etc for each sector separatelyand not “Super-MNS” for leptons/Higgses. Need to discuss?
NB: OK
11
• SIMPLEST WAY– Add prefix “IM” to already existing SLHA1 blocks
– E.g. in input: IMEXTPAR; in output: IMNMIX etc …
– Not completely general, but useful starting point
• MORE GENERAL– Add prefix “IM” to new SLHA2 blocks (supersede SLHA1 if present)
• EW SCALE MIXING:– CVHMIX: 4x4 neutral Higgs (CP-even & CP-odd) mixing
– IMCVHMIX: imaginary parts
– Charged Higgs mixing (2x2) not yet agreed upon
How to Generalise? CPV
NB: Yes. Include Goldstones. In principle their composition is
specified by theory, but can
be hard to calculate, so
why not?
NB:
Mixing is real!
No IMCVHMIX (only for zon-zero
width)

Cross Sections & Theory ErrorsNB: Not included in current LH status report
• Theory Errors– Introduce (unphysical) input variables corresponding to
variations within theoretical uncertainty -> range of spectra. (Similar in spririt to error PDF's)
– Calculation of observables from spectrum +/- errors on computed variables
• Cross Sections used by fit programs– Templated in SPheno. Collecting experiences now.
Fittino, Sfitter
These (and more?) to be included in journal writeup
NB: No explicit progress at this time
14
• In SLHA1, exact definition of mixing matrices was “left up to RGE program” (since the only thing we could agree on was not to agree …)
– Read the individual manual• DRbar at some scale m? (m2
SUSY = mt1mt2, m = (mh + mH)/2, …)
• On-shell ?
• Etc …
– Not a huge problem• DRbar Lagrangian parameters also given can always construct desired mixing structure
• Still, would be nice to have possibility for exact definition
– Include option for giving DRbar mixing matrices at scale Q:
Including (possibility for) well-defined mixing matrices
e.g. BLOCK NMIX Q=… or BLOCK DRNMIX Q=…
BLOCK NMIXDR Q=…
NB: Not clear what this will be useful for. Sven argues that no use for
DRbar definition of alpha. People should speak up, or possibility will be thrown away.

• MC4BSM: first workshop to focus explicitly on tools for non-SUSY BSM:– Survey what is available: communication + feedback
– Identify promising models and start to fill up the gaps
– Streamlining the process of going from models to events
Monte Carlo Tools for Beyond-the-Standard-Model Physics. March 20-21 2006. Fermilab
MC4BSM Workshop
• One question that came up:• Successive resonance decays of general new physics resonances?• Can be done with SLHA decay tables, just add basic information about particle Proposal for SLHA2. BLOCK QNUMBERS (or PARTICLE?)
BLOCK QNUMBERS 1234567 # new_guy PDG=1234567 1 0 # 3 times electric charge 2 2 # number of spin states (2S+1) 3 1 # colour rep (1: singlet, 3: triplet, 8: octet) 4 0 # Particle/Antiparticle distinction (0=own anti)BLOCK MASS # Mass Spectrum 1234567 3.1415926535E+02 # new_guyDECAY 1234567 1.000000E+00 # new_guy width 1.0000E-00 2 22 22 # Br(new_guy -> gamma gamma)
•( Already used to interface CalcHEP, NMHDecay, and PYTHIA, for the NMSSM)
NB: essentially no comment

ConclusionsTough conditions call for good tools! We will be
ready for NMSSM, CPV, RPV, FLV, …
Then all we need is a signal …

• MSSM has been useful benchmark scenario to test experimental and phenomenological strategies for a long time
– Now increasing focus on non-MSSM signatures + how we could get confused
–Many advanced tools exist to study all aspects of MSSM phenomenology in detail (dark matter, electroweak precision, cross sections, decay widths, NLO, spin correllations, event generators, …) + most use SUSY Les Houches Accord (now being extended to CPV, RPV, FLV, NMSSM)
– For non-MSSM BSM much fewer / less sophisticated tools
• Many new models of New Physics emerged over last few years:– e.g. Extra Dimensions, new technicolor-like models, Higgsless, Little Higgs,
gauge and/or matter extensions to MSSM, ...
– Many of these imply qualitatively new phenomenological signatures
– The rest imply a possible experimental confusion with existing models

The SLHA1 Conventions
1. Experimental boundary conditions
• “SM” gauge couplings and Yukawas (measured) “MSSM” couplings and Yukawas (not the same, since different
field content different quantum corrections)
2. Superpotential (at scale Q (normally MGUT) in DRbar)
3. SUSY Breaking Terms (at scale Q in DRbar)
