GoSam-2.0: a tool for automated one-loop calculations within the Standard Model and beyond

We present the version 2.0 of the program package GoSam for the automated calculation of one-loop amplitudes. GoSam is devised to compute one-loop QCD and/or electroweak corrections to multi-particle processes within and beyond the Standard Model. The new code contains improvements in the generation and in the reduction of the amplitudes, performs better in computing time and numerical accuracy, and has an extended range of applicability. The extended version of the “Binoth-Les-Houches-Accord” interface to Monte Carlo programs is also implemented. We give a detailed description of installation and usage of the code, and illustrate the new features in dedicated examples.

Golem95C: A library for one-loop integrals with complex masses

Gavin Cullen; J.Ph. Guillet; Gudrun Heinrich; Tobias Kleinschmidt; E. Pilon; Thomas Reiter; M. Rodgers

We present a program for the numerical evaluation of scalar integrals and tensor form factors entering the calculation of one-loop amplitudes which supports the use of complex masses in the loop integrals. The program is built on an earlier version of the golem95 library, which performs the reduction to a certain set of basis integrals using a formalism where inverse Gram determinants can be avoided. It can be used to calculate one-loop amplitudes with arbitrary masses in an algebraic approach as well as in the context of unitarity-inspired numerical reconstruction of the integrand.

spinney: A Form library for helicity spinors☆

Gavin Cullen; Maciej Koch-Janusz; Thomas Reiter

In this work, the library spinney is presented, which provides an implementation of helicity spinors and related algorithms for the symbolical manipulation program Form. The package is well suited for symbolic amplitude calculations both in traditional, Feynman diagram based approaches and unitarity-based techniques.

SUSY-QCD corrections to neutralino pair production in association with a jet

Gavin Cullen; Nicolas Greiner; Gudrun Heinrich

We present the NLO SUSY-QCD corrections to the production of a pair of the lightest neutralinos plus one jet at the LHC, appearing as a monojet signature in combination with missing energy. We fully include all non-resonant diagrams, i.e. we do not assume that production and decay factorise. We derive a parameter point based on the p19MSSM which is compatible with current experimental bounds and show distributions based on missing transverse energy and jet observables. Our results are produced with the program GoSam Cullen et al. (Eur. Phys. J. C 72:1889, 2012) for automated one-loop calculations in combination with MadDipole/MadGraph for the real radiation part.

GoSam: A program for automated one-loop calculations

Gavin Cullen; Nicolas Greiner; Gudrun Heinrich; Gionata Luisoni; Pierpaolo Mastrolia; Giovanni Ossola; Thomas Reiter; Francesco Tramontano

The program package GoSam is presented which aims at the automated calculation of one-loop amplitudes for multi-particle processes. The amplitudes are generated in terms of Feynman diagrams and can be reduced using either D-dimensional integrand-level decomposition or tensor reduction, or a combination of both. GoSam can be used to calculate one-loop corrections to both QCD and electroweak theory, and model files for theories Beyond the Standard Model can be linked as well. A standard interface to programs calculating real radiation is also included. The flexibility of the program is demonstrated by various examples.

Recent Progress in the Golem Project

Gavin Cullen; Nicolas Greiner; Alberto Guffanti; Jean-Philippe Guillet; Gudrun Heinrich; Stefan Karg; N. Kauer; Tobias Kleinschmidt; E. Pilon; Thomas Reiter; Juergen Reuter; M. Rodgers; Ioan Wigmore

We report on the current status of the Golem project which aims at the construction of a general one-loop evaluator for matrix elements. We construct the one-loop matrix elements from Feynman diagrams in a highly automated way and provide a library for the reduction and numerically stable evaluation of the tensor integrals involved in this approach. Furthermore, we present applications to physics processes relevant for the LHC.

NLO Cross Sections for the LHC using GOLEM: Status and Prospects

T. Binoth; Jean-Philippe Guillet; Stefan Karg; Gavin Cullen; N. Kauer; Alberto Guffanti; J. Reuter; Gudrun Heinrich; Thomas Reiter; Nicolas Greiner

In this talk we review the GOLEM approach to one-loop calculations and present an automated implementation of this technique. This method is based on Feynman diagrams and an advanced reduction of one-loop tensor integrals which avoids numerical instabilities. We have extended our one-loop integral library golem95 with an automated one-loop matrix element generator to compute the virtual corrections of the process
