Here is collected processes involving supersymmetric particle production, with the exception of the (extended) Higgs sector. Since the number of separate but closely related processes is so big, there will not be switches for each separate process but only for a reasonable set of subgroups. However, the general switches SUSY:idA and SUSY:idB,valternatively vectors SUSY:idVecA and SUSY:idVecB, may be used in conjunction with any of these groups to provide some additional flexibility to concentrate on processes involving only specific (s)particle final states, see below.

Most of the SUSY implementation in PYTHIA 8 has been written by N. Desai and is documented in [Des11]. Please give due credit to external contributions to PYTHIA 8, such as this one, by including the original work in your list of references when using this implementation. The cross section formulae are mostly taken from [Boz07] and [Fuk11].
Since the implementation of SUSY processes was only recently completed [Des11], case-by-case validations against other codes are still recommended. A set of default validations have already been carried out by the authors, comparing to the PYTHIA 6 SUSY implementation and to the XSUSY code, using an sps1a spectrum. Explicit validations of the non-trivial SLHA2-specific extensions have generally not been carried out yet, with the exception of the R-parity violating single-sparticle production cross sections. Please report the results of any user validations you may carry out to the authors.
