The automatic computation for SUSY processes

We have constructed a system for the automatic computation of cross-sections for the processes of the SUSY QED by the extension of the GRACE system including a Majorana fermion. The system has also been applied to another model including Majorana fermions, MSSM, by the definition of the model file.Comment: total 4 page

PHASE, a Monte Carlo event generator for six-fermion physics at the LHC

PHASE is a new event generator dedicated to the study of Standard Model processes with six fermions in the final state at the LHC. The code is intended for analyses of vector boson scattering, Higgs search, three gauge boson production, and top physics. This first version of the program describes final states characterized by the presence of one neutrino, $pp\to 4q +l\nu_l$, at O($\alpha^6$). PHASE is based on a new iterative-adaptive multichannel technique, and employs exact leading order matrix elements. The code can generate unweighted events for any subset of all available final states. The produced parton-level events carry full information on their colour and flavour structure, enabling the evolution of the partons into fully hadronised final states. An interface to hadronization packages is provided via the Les Houches Protocol.Comment: 27 pages, Latex, 6 figure

e+e−→H+H−e^+e^-\to H^+H^- signals at LEP2 energies in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

In this paper we compare $H^+H^-$ and $W^+W^-$ into four-fermion production at centre-of-mass energies typical of LEP2 and somewhat larger. The theoretical framework considered is the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The interest in exploiting the $e^+e^-$ CERN collider at values of $\sqrt s$ greater than 192 GeV could come from the discovery of Supersymmetric signals during runs at lower energy. If these indicate that a charged Higgs boson exists in the mass range \MH\approx95-105 GeV, then a few years of running at $\sqrt s=205-215$ GeV and nominal luminosity could make the detection of such scalars feasible, in the purely leptonic channel $\tau\nu_\tau\tau\nu_\tau$ and, for small \tb's, also in the semi-hadronic(leptonic) one ${jj}\tau\nu_\tau$. Charged Higgs bosons of the above nature cannot be produced by the beam energies approved at present for LEP2. However, if runs beyond the so-called `192 GeV cryogenic limit' will be approved by the CERN Council, our selection procedure will enable us to establish the presence, or otherwise, of charged Higgs bosons in the mentioned mass rangeComment: 30 pages, latex, epsfig, 12 postscript figures, complete paper available at ftp://axpa.hep.phy.cam.ac.uk/stefano/cavendish_9615 and at http://www.hep.phy.cam.ac.uk/theory/papers

ALPGEN, a generator for hard multiparton processes in hadronic collisions

This paper presents a new event generator, ALPGEN, dedicated to the study of multiparton hard processes in hadronic collisions. The code performs, at the leading order in QCD and EW interactions, the calculation of the exact matrix elements for a large set of parton-level processes of interest in the study of the Tevatron and LHC data. The current version of the code describes the following final states: (W -> ffbar') QQbar+ N jets (Q being a heavy quark, and f=l,q), with N f fbar)+QQbar+Njets (f=l,nu), with N ffbar') + charm + N jets (f=l,q), N f fbar') + N jets (f=l,q) and (Z/gamma* -> f fbar)+ N jets (f=l,nu), with N<=6; nW+mZ+lH+N jets, with n+m+l+N<=8 and N<=3 including all 2-fermion decay modes of W and Z bosons, with spin correlations; Q Qbar+N jets (N b f fbar' decays and relative spin correlations included if Q=t; Q Qbar Q' Qbar'+N jets, with Q and Q' heavy quarks (possibly equal) and N b f fbar' decays and relative spin correlations included if Q=t; N jets, with N<=6. Parton-level events are generated, providing full information on their colour and flavour structure, enabling the evolution of the partons into fully hadronised final states.Comment: 1+38 pages, uses JHEP.cls.

Standard Model Large-E_T Processes and Searches for New Physics at HERA

Existing and missing calculations of standard model processes producing large transverse energy in electron-proton interactions at HERA are reviewed. The adequacy of the existing standard model Monte Carlo programs for generic searches of exotic processes is analyzed.Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX, uses iop style files, Contribution to the 3rd UK Phenomenology Workshop on HERA Physics, September 1998, Durha
