SPICE: Simulation Package for Including Flavor in Collider Events

Abstract
We describe SPICE: Simulation Package for Including Flavor in Collider Events. SPICE takes as input two ingredients: a standard flavor-conserving supersymmetric spectrum and a set of flavor-violating slepton mass parameters, both of which are specified at some high "mediation" scale. SPICE then combines these two ingredients to form a flavor-violating model, determines the resulting low-energy spectrum and branching ratios, and outputs HERWIG and SUSY Les Houches files, which may be used to g...

Catalogue Id: AEFL_v1_0

Nature of problem
Simulation programs are required to compare theoretical models in particle physics with present and future data at particle colliders. SPICE determines the masses and decay branching ratios of supersymmetric particles in theories with lepton flavor violation. The inputs are the parameters of any of several standard flavor-conserving supersymmetric models, supplemented by flavor-violating parameters determined, for example, by horizontal flavor symmetries. The output are files that may be used fo ...

摘要
本研究介绍SPICE：碰撞事件味引入模拟程序包（Simulation Package for Including Flavor in Collider Events）。SPICE以两类输入参数为基础：一类为标准味守恒超对称能谱，另一类为味破缺轻子超伴子（slepton）质量参数，两类参数均在某一高“媒介（mediation）”标度下给定。随后SPICE将两类参数结合以构建味破缺模型，计算得到对应的低能能谱与衰变分支比，并输出HERWIG与SUSY Les Houches格式文件，可用于后续相关研究[原文未完结]。

程序名称：SPICE
目录编号：AEFL_v1_0

程序解决的问题
粒子物理领域需要通过模拟程序，将粒子对撞机的现有与未来实验数据与粒子物理理论模型进行比对。SPICE可在轻子味破缺（lepton flavor violation）理论框架下，计算超对称粒子的质量与衰变分支比。其输入为若干标准味守恒超对称模型的参数集，并补充由例如水平味对称性（horizontal flavor symmetries）确定的味破缺参数。程序输出的文件可用于相关实验分析[原文未完结]。
