Description
The interesting but difficult phenomenology of supersymmetric models at the LHC & ILC
demands a corresponding complexity and maturity from simulation tools. This includes
multi-particle final states, reducible and irreducible backgrounds, spin
correlations, real emission of photons and gluons, virtual corrections etc. Most of
these topics are included
in the multi-particle Monte Carlo (MC) Event generators Madgraph, Whizard and Sherpa.
A comparison of these codes is shown, with a special focus on the new release of
Whizard/O'Mega. I show examples for the necessity of considering full matrix elements
with all off-shell effects and interferences for multi-particle final states in
supersymmetric models and give a status report on ongoing projects for simulations of
SUSY processes at the LHC with these codes, including all of the abovementioned
corrections.
