Calculate Decays does all decay table calculations and outputs.

We work on the principle that any problem flags should already be set, and calculateDecays should not change them

Initialise global decay variables

If there is a serious problem with the point, return an error code and warning

< Flags to turn off decays, default 1 = on, 0 = off

Turns on QCD corrections to h->gg and h->qq

Switch on or off 1->3 decays

Turns on 1->3 decays, reads this in from input file, default is true

Do this as nmssm is a const to ensure it can't be changed here (e.g. if run in RPV mode where NMSSM is not included don't want this to change NMSSM), copy to nmssmrun to allow me to run it to MSusy, 1000GeV or whatever scale for parameter extraction

CP even higgses mixing matrix which I will transform to match that in NMSSMTools

initialise CPEMix

is pseudoscalar mixing matrix as in P in NMSSMTools (dropped first row as that's goldstones hence 2x3 - just made 3x3 to stop issue with DoubleMatrix, third row is all 0s)

is P2 in NMSSMTools

Quark pole masses for general use

Run to scale Msusy for parameter extraction

Must redo calcDrBarPars at each scale

CP even higgs 3x3 mixing matrix as from softsusy

Transform to match conventions in NMSSMTools

CP odd higgses mixing angle

CPOMix is the mixing matrix used in the partial width formulae, not Ptemp or CPOMix2

0s as never used as CPOMix is actually 2x3 as dropped goldstone row

Additional NMSSM parameters

Set masses from nmssmrun nmssmsoftsusy object passed from softpoint

Set mixing angles in my conventions, note shift in thetaL2 and thetaR2, which are the angles used in the PW formulae

"running" W mass, i.e. that used for couplings

Mixing angles taken from softsusy depend on the mass ordering, I have taken the Spheno method whereby the sfermions are always mass ordered, this isn't necessarily true of softsusy so if the mass ordering is reverse I must change the mixing angle and reorder the masses.

Trilinear couplings

Effective mu parameter of NMSSM - note resolves mu problem of MSSM

Run to mZ for fermion mass extraction

Pole masses for quarks necessary for scheme used for h -> qq QCD corrections

Masses used in general formulae for quarks

Must redo calcDrBarPars at new scale

"Running" masses used for couplings, e.g. in setting yukawas

Instead of using Softsusy to run gs to different scales (time inefficient) use the one-loop renormalisation group equations for gs directly to run to different scales, this is accurate enough for our purposes here - NOT WHAT IS USED IN CODE, FULL RUNNING OF SOFTSUSY IS USED, just left for potential use:

See later function definition

Or run fully to the mass of each decaying Higgs: - WHAT IS ACTUALLY USED, these are used for masses of quarks and for gauge couplings for the Higgs loop decays, here the scale at which you choose to set your masses can cause significant differences in the PWs determined:

If yukawa matrix elements are 0 (can occur if only include mixing in third generation in softsusy spectrum generator) then use a non-zero mass - avoids issues of inf in foftau for loop decays!

For mh should not use full susy running as susy not around this scale, instead use SM running as in QeDQcD object defined in lowe.h:

MSSM

Run to Msusy scale to extract parameters

Set masses

Set mixing angles - again note shift in thetaL2 and thetaR2 used in PW formulae

"Running" W mass, used for couplings

Ensure mass ordering of sfermions, requires shift of sfermion mixing angles if mass order initially wrong

Trilinear couplings

Run to mZ to extract quark masses

Masses used in general formulae for quarks

Need to recalc DrBarPars at each new scale

"Running" masses used for couplings, e.g. yukawa couplings

Instead of using Softsusy to run gs to different scales (time inefficient) use the one-loop renormalisation group equations for gs directly to run to different scales, this is accurate enough for our purposes here, NOT WHAT IS DONE - full running is done (see a few lines below) - just left for potential use:

See later function definition

Look into hdecay's alphas values via their running function - NOT USED:

Or run fully using softsusy runto: - THIS IS WHAT IS ACTUALLY USED NOT 1-LOOP RENORMALISATION GROUP EQUATIONS APPROXIMATE WAY OF A FEW LINES ABOVE Determine gauge couplings and quark masses at the mass of the decaying Higgses for use in the Higgs loop decays, here the choice of scale for evaluating the mass of the quarks and couplings can have a significant effect on the PWs

If yukawa matrix elements are 0 (can get if set mixing to 0 in softsusy spectrum generator) then use a non-zero mass - otherwise get inf issue in foftau function for loop decays!

For mh should not use full susy running as susy not around this scale, instead use SM running as in QeDQcD object defined in lowe.h:

gravitino stuff - For NLSP decays to LSP gravitino, occur often in GMSB scenarios

a gravitino switch, by default it's off (0), it's turned on (1) a few lines below if the gravitino is the LSP as then decays to it are important, if it's not the LSP decays to it are unimportant as they are Planck suppressed.

Set by hand, could read in a value from softsusy spectrum generator

A number which indicates which type of particle is the LSP

< LSP is a gravitino

< LSP is not a gravitino

default position

Default position is 1 so all SUSY dedcays to LSP gravitino considered unless you only want the NLSP decays to gravitino decays, then if below section uncommented it sets all but NLSP switch to 0.

Using the nlsp function from softsusy.cpp, Returns a label which says which particle is NLSP, 0 means NLSP is neutralino, 1=up squark, 2=down squark, 3=sleptons, 4=charginos, 5=sneutrinos, 6=gluino. Uncomment this if you only want the NLSP decays to the LSP gravitino to be considered, note one potential issue with this is particles only slightly heavier than the NLSP may still have only the decay to the LSPgravitino available and this function doesn't take account of this. If this section below is commented all SUSY decays to the LSP gravitino are considered and then they are not output if there BRs are less than BRTol

Obtaining the CKM Matrix from Yukawa Matrices:

Form hermitian conjugate of vdl - only need to transpose as must be real as taken Yukawa matrices as real:

CKM only used so far in H+ decays to q q'bar, otherwise taken as diagonal

Higgs decays higgsl decays

If QCDcorr off use these below -> running masses used to approximate some of QCD corrections at tree-level

No decays to u or d as PWs to u and d are tiny as proportional to yukawas squared Use running masses here to try to approximate some of the correction (which aren't included)

No decay to two tops as kinematically forbidden

With QCDcorr on then use actual pole masses for quarks as corrections being accounted for

mcpole and mspole set in decays.h, this values used are those appropriate for the scheme used for the h -> qq QCD corrections, as in hdecay

No decay to two tops as kinematically forbidden

0 as leptons are like down-type quarks, divided by three as Nc is three for quarks but 1 for leptons

use runmt and runmb here as mass used to set yukawa coupling, note however pole masses give greater agreement with susyhit as susyhit uses non-running masses here, similar for other higgs decays to third generation sfermions

Use quark masses and gauge couplings run to the mass of the decaying higgs, exact scale these were evaluated may significantly alter the PW

Note not included for MSSM as h0 is always lighter than Hpm in that case

*2 as W+H- or W-H+

So read into other programs, e.g. PYTHIA, correctly

amplitude same as decay to ~chi1+ and ~chi2- by CP invariance

No higgs NLSP decays to gravitinos as they are unimportant as would be swamped by

0 indicates no 3rd daughter so 1->2 decay.

Could argue no need for test for nans here as the higgs 1 -> 3 decay formulae are all purely analytic algebraic expressions, therefore no numerical integration is involved so we can't get nans. Will check anyway as possibility of -ve sqrts in kinematics or -ve logs, or infs etc

Tests for a nan as only nans aren't equal to themselves

So only 1 to 2 decays are output if a 1 to 3 decay gives a nan

Tests for a nan as only nans aren't equal to themselves

higgsH decays

No decays to u or d as negligible as PW proportional to yukawas squared Use running masses here to try to approximate some of the correction (which aren't included)

use runmb here to reduce necessary corrections

may rather use mtPole here as closer to answer with corrections than runmt gives

mcpole and mspole set in decays.h, this values used are those appropriate for the scheme used for the h -> qq QCD corrections, as in hdecay

0 as leptons are like down-type quarks, divide by 3 as No of colours is 1 for leptons cf 3 for quarks

0 as leptons are like down-type quarks, divide by 3 as No of colours is 1 for leptons cf 3 for quarks

In general may wish to not allow the A -> HZ decay for heavy higgs as it's ruled out by SUSY constraints on the mass spectrum (Djouadi Tome II)?

Use quark masses and gauge couplings run to the mass of the decaying higgs, exact scale these were evaluated may significantly alter the PW

NMSSM so need to modify by elements of pseudoscalar mixing matrix
