HELAS and MadGraph/MadEvent with spin-2 particles

Hagiwara, Kaoru, Kanzaki, Junichi, Li, Qiang et al.

Understand

Fortran subroutines to calculate helicity amplitudes with massive spin-2 particles (massive gravitons), which couple to the standard model particles via the energy momentum tensor, are added to the {\tt HELAS} ({\tt HEL}icity {\tt A}mplitude {\tt S}ubroutines) library.

  • They are coded in such a way that arbitrary scattering amplitudes with one graviton production and its decays can be generated automatically by {\tt MadGraph} and {\tt MadEvent}, after slight modifications.
  • All the codes have been tested carefully by making use of the invariance of the helicity amplitudes under the gauge and general coordinate transformations.
