Abstract

FlexibleSUSY is a framework for the automated computation of physical quantities (observables) in models beyond the Standard Model (BSM). This paper describes an extension of FlexibleSUSY which allows to define and add new observables that can be enabled and computed in applicable user-defined BSM models. The extension has already been used to include Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (CLFV) observables, but further observables can now be added straightforwardly. The paper is split into two parts. The first part is non-technical and describes from the user's perspective how to enable the calculation of predefined observables, in particular CLFV observables. The second part of the paper explains how to define new observables such that their automatic computation in any applicable BSM model becomes possible. A key ingredient is the new NPointFunctions extension which allows to use tree-level and loop calculations in the model-independent setup of observables. Three examples of increasing complexity are fully worked out. This illustrates the features and provides code snippets that may be used as a starting point for implementation of further observables.

Solution method: Generation of the code from automated algebraic manipulations. Automatic filling and compiling of predefined template files. Additional comments including restrictions and unusual features: Vertices with a direct product of Lorentz and color structures are supported. Settings of the advanced NPointFunctions mode rely on explicit specification of topologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
