Measuring sparticle masses in non-universal string inspired models at the LHC
We demonstrate that some of the suggested five supergravity points for study at the LHC could be approximately derived from perturbative string theories or M-theory, but that charge and colour breaking minima would result. As a...

LHC and B physics probes of neutrinoless double beta decay in supersymmetry without R-parity
BC Allanach, CH Kom, H Pas
Jan 19, 2010
In the event of an observation of neutrinoless double beta decay, a relevant question would be: what lepton number violating physics is responsible for the decay? The exchange of Majorana neutrinos and/or supersymmetric...

AMEGIC++ 1.0
F Krauss, R Kuhn, G Soff
Feb 17, 2010
The new matrix element generator AMEGIC++ is introduced, dedicated to describe multi–particle production in high energy particle collisions. It automatically generates helicity amplitudes for the processes under consideration...
The influence of the experimental methodology on the QED theoretical uncertainties on the measurement of M-W at LEP
MA Thomson
Feb 15, 2010
Previous studies of the QED systematic uncertainties on the LEP measurement of the W-boson mass have used idealized event selections and fitting procedures. In this paper, the Monte Carlo tandem of KoralW and YFSWW is used to...

Implementation of supersymmetric processes in the HERWIG event generator
We describe the implementation of supersymmetric processes in the HERWIG Monte Carlo event generator. We define relevant parameter and mixing conventions and list the hard scattering matrix elements. Our implementation is based...

The dark side of mSUGRA
BC Allanach, CG Lester, AM Weber
Jan 11, 2010
We study the mu<0 branch of the minimal supergravity ansatz of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. The extent to which mu<0 is disfavoured compared to mu>0 in global fits is calculated with Markov Chain Monte Carlo...

Multidimensional mSUGRA likelihood maps
BC Allanach, CG Lester
Jan 12, 2010
We calculate the likelihood map in the full 7 dimensional parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) assuming universal boundary conditions on the supersymmetry breaking terms. Simultaneous variations of...

Discovering anomaly-mediated supersymmetry at the LHC
The discovery potential of the LHC is investigated for the minimal anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking (mAMSB) scenario, using the ATLAS fast detector simulator, including track reconstruction and particle...

Implementing initial state radiation for lepton induced processes in AMEGIC++.
A Schalicke, F Krauss, R Kuhn, G Soff
Feb 17, 2010
We have implemented the method of Yennie, Frautschi, and Suura up to first order in α for the simulation of QED Initial State Radiation in lepton induced processes in AMEGIC++. We consider s–channel processes via the exchange of...
