SUSYGEN Version 3.0

SUSYGEN 3.0 is a very interesting piece of software. You can do a lot of tailored analysis with it because the input card is very user friendly and has many options for the user to set. The downside to this software is currently that it contains a hardwired version of an OLD version of SUSPECT which produces different results than the new more developed version of SUSPECT. It is not so easy to change the RGE code in this software.

Installation of this software is easy.
You just need to change one command in the "Makefile" to link to the CERN Libraries.
Note, on our cluster we have a version of the CERN LIBS installed in the scratch directory.

INSTALLATION AND RUN

Copy and paste these commands in your home directory

wget http://www.cern.ch/ghodbane/susygen/fortran/3.00-45/py61/pp/susygen3.tar.gz
tar -zxvf susygen3.tar.gz

Here, the read me file is so well written I really do not have to tell you anything except that, as mentioned above, you need to link to the CERN LIBS in the scratch directory.

Here is the read me file, with the one command you need to change in the make file to get SUSYGEN 3.0 running.
I have put a new command in an altered version of the README file in the [[brackets]] of the following file in section (iii) {which should be called (ii) not (iii)}:
README_with_new_command.txt

In the above file I have also indicated the correct command to run the software once you have installed it.
This is also in [[brackets]] in section (v).

Here is an example of an input card I created which is using mSUGRA
(the other options are overwritten by the choice MODES 0 ):
susygen.input

Here is an example of some output data (also a large events file is created): susygen.dat

The manual, on the first line of this webpage (above) is very user friendly, and will help you understand the input card better. I note then when compiling the source code for the NLO version of this software, as is, from the SUSYGEN webpage, a directory appears to be not set correctly which defaults to the directory of one of the software's authors.
