H. Eberl29th April 2010
Program Packages that calculate all MSSM Higgs1 and Sfermion2 decays at full one-loop level
Motivation:
All SUSY-QCD known, but full EW corr. only for some processes really calculated up to now
No complete one-loop code publicly available up to now
Total one-loop widths are necessary for 23 one-loop processes with resonant propagators
Loops -precision calculation - measurement underlying Lagrangian - next talk by Sven Heinemeyer

The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
•To every SM particle a SUSY partner is introduced, both members of the same multiplet and the d.o.f. are more than doubled.
•The structure of the SM is automatically included.
•New particles are predicted, super partners (sparticles) of the SM particles – SUSY models have a rich phenomenology.
Superpotential – generalisation of the Yukawa interactions of the SM:
all fields are here chiral multiplets, are the 3 x 3 Yukawa matrices
can be complex
Work is done in the “real” 24-parameter MSSM

Higgs couplings to gauge bosonsHiggs couplings to gauge bosons
From the Lagrangian with the covariant derivatives
we get the gauge boson masses
and the couplings with one and two gauge bosons to the Higgs bosons, e.g.

In order to get information on fundamental SUSY parameters and SUSY-breaking mechanism in the MSSM: observables shall be measured with high accuracy.
LHC – explorer machinewill see SUSY with masses at ~ 1 TeV scale, squark and gluino decays
ILC - high precision machine – requires equally theor. calc. including higher orders
Need of a well-defined theoretical framework:
SPA convention provides a clear base for calculating masses, couplings,mixing, decay widths and production cross sections.

SPA convention
Masses of SUSY particles and Higgs bosons defined as pole masses
All SUSY Lagrangian parameters are in the DRbar scheme at Q = 1TeV
All elements in mass matrices, rotation matrices and corresponding mixing angles are def. DRbar at Q, except (h0 –H0) mixing angle is defined on-shell with p = mh0
• SM input parameters: GFermi, α, mZ, as(mZ) and fermion masses
Decay widths/branching ratios and production cross section are calculated for the set of parameters specified above

BremsstrahlungBremsstrahlung
In order to cancel the IR divergencies we have includedreal photon/gluon radiation:• soft radiation – dependent on cut E, automatized in FC• hard radiation – analytic results for integrals used from [1] four generic structures analytically derived and used
