Parsing, manipulating, and visualising SUSY Les Houches Accord data

Project description

A simple but flexible parser of SUSY Les Houches Accord (SLHA) model and decay files.

pyslha is a parser/writer module for particle physics SUSY Les Houches Accord (SLHA) supersymmetric spectrum/decay files, and a collection of scripts which use the interface, e.g. for conversion to and from the legacy ISAWIG format, or to plot the mass spectrum and decay chains.

The current release supports SLHA version 1, and as far as we’re aware is also fully compatible with SLHA2: the block structures are read and accessed completely generically. If you have any problems with SLHA2, please provide an example input file and we’ll investigate.

The plotting script provides output in PDF, EPS and PNG via LaTeX and the TikZ graphics package, and as LaTeX/TikZ source for direct embedding into documents or user-tweaking of the generated output.

TODOs:
  • Store dict entries as tuple keys, e.g. myblock.entries[1,2] rather than recursive dicts => v1.6.0

  • Preserve comments from read -> write (needs full-line/inline comment separation?)

  • Split writeSLHA into writeSLHA{Blocks,Decays}

  • Identify HERWIG decay matrix element to use in ISAWIG

  • Handle RPV SUSY in ISAWIG
