| Purpose |
- The purpose of the project is to define a unique set of
conventions for supersymmetric
extensions of the Standard Model together with an accord specifying
generic file structures for
1) supersymmetric model specifications and input parameters,
2) EW scale supersymmetric mass and coupling spectra, and
3) decay tables, to provide a universal interface between
spectrum calculation programs, decay packages, and high energy physics
event generators.

| SLHA Read/Write Utilities
|
|
|
- LHPC - a C++
based set of classes for interpreting files in the Les
Houches Event File (LHEF) format and SUSY Les Houches
Accord (SLHA: original SLHA1 and extended SLHA2)
format. It also parses Flavor Les Houches Accord (FLHA)
files, though with less functionality.
- pySLHA
- a Python-based reader, writer and plotter of SLHA and
SLHA2 files.
- SLHALib - a
FORTRAN library of routines for reading, writing, and
manipulating SLHA and SLHA 2 files.
- SLHAea
- a C++ library for SLHA input and output (requires the
BOOST C++ headers)
- SLHAio
- a C++ library for SLHA input and output
- The C++ SLHA read utilities in SusyLesHouches.h and SusyLesHouches.cc
in PYTHIA 8 have been written so they can be used standalone (independent of the rest of
PYTHIA 8) and can be recycled for other
purposes. Official

| Example Codes
|
- main76.f:
example how
to use an SLHA spectrum file with PYTHIA 6,
to generate supersymmetric processes, in this case stop1
pair production events at LHC; the run requires an
external file with a SuSy spectrum calculated by an
external RGE code, like "softsusy.spc"
generated by SoftSusy.
- main83.f:
example how
to use a BSM (QNUMBERS) file with PYTHIA 6;
the run requires an
external file with QNUMBERS blocks, like "main83.spc".
