The calculation of the Higgs mass in general renormalisable field theories has been plagued by the so-called "Goldstone Boson Catastrophe," where light (would-be) Goldstone bosons give infra-red divergent loop integrals. In supersymmetric models, previous approaches included a workaround that ameliorated the problem for most, but not all, parameter space regions; while giving divergent results everywhere for non-supersymmetric models! We present an implementation of a general solution to the problem in the public code SARAH, along with new calculations of some necessary loop integrals and generic expressions. We discuss the validation of our code in the Standard Model, where we find remarkable agreement with the known results. We then show new applications in Split SUSY, the NMSSM, the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model, and the Georgi-Machacek model. In particular, we take some first steps to exploring where the habit of using tree-level mass relations in non-supersymmetric models breaks down, and show that the loop corrections usually become very large well before naive perturbativity bounds are reached.
在一般可重整化场论中,希格斯质量的计算一直受到所谓“戈德斯通玻色子灾难”的困扰,即轻的(潜在)戈德斯通玻色子会给出红外发散的圈积分。在超对称模型中,先前的方法包括一种变通方案,该方案在大多数但并非所有参数空间区域改善了问题;而对于非超对称模型,在所有地方都会给出发散结果!我们在公开代码SARAH中给出了该问题的通用解决方案的实现,以及一些必要圈积分的新计算结果和通用表达式。我们讨论了我们的代码在标准模型中的验证情况,在那里我们发现与已知结果有显著的一致性。然后我们展示了在分裂超对称、NMSSM、双希格斯二重态模型和乔治 - 马恰克模型中的新应用。特别是,我们迈出了探索非超对称模型中使用树级质量关系的习惯在何处失效的第一步,并表明在达到朴素微扰论界限之前,圈修正通常就会变得非常大。
