Including R-parity violation in the numerical computation of the spectrum of the minimal supersymmetric standard model: SOFTSUSY

Understand

Current publicly available computer programs calculate the spectrum and couplings of the minimal supersymmetric standard model under the assumption of R-parity conservation.

• Here, we describe an extension to the SOFTSUSY program which includes R-parity violating effects.
• The user provides a theoretical boundary condition upon the high-scale supersymmetry breaking R-parity violating couplings.
• Successful radiative electroweak symmetry breaking, electroweak and CKM matrix data are used as weak-scale boundary conditions.
