Hi Paul,<br>
<br>
I think this is just an SLHA version issue.<br>
<br>
The slha file you attach from SOFTSUSY looks like it is SLHA1, where
the sfermions are given as gauge or 3rd family family eigenstates. <br>
<br>
In the FlexibleSUSY output for that model we use the SLHA2 standard
with flavour violation and there the sfermions are mass ordered.
This does change the meaning of the PDG codes that are used as
entries in the MASS block.<br>
<br>
See Eqs 28-31 of <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/0801.0045">https://arxiv.org/abs/0801.0045</a>
and the note below them for details.<br>
<br>
I believe you would get the same result in SOFTSUSY and probably
SPHENO if set entry 6 of the MODSEL block to 1.<br>
<br>
You can check the composition of the sfermions by looking at the
mixing matrices given in Blocks USQMIX, DSQMIX and SELMIX.<br>
<br>
If you need to use SLHA1 output instead with FlexibleSUSY, this
should be possible, but you would need to do something similar to
what we do in the CMSSMNoFV model file, where we use the SARAH model
file, MSSMNoFV, that has no flavour violation in the sfermion
sector and define SLHA1 like output blocks in the model file.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps, thank you for your interest in FlexibleSUSY.<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
Peter <br>

We're implementing FlexibleSUSY for a pMSSM analysis (using
lowMSSM) and noticed that the sfermion masses appear to be
swapped between the left and right-handed states in the SLHA
output. For example, from SOFTSUSY we find that <br>

</span>for the up-squark masses. We've worked with this point
in a previous analysis and checked that SOFTSUSY gives
(almost) identical results as SPheno, so it seems that they're
getting swapped in FlesibleSUSY's SLHA files. We've attached
the SLHA output from both FlexibleSUSY and SOFTSUSY. <br>
<br>
It looks like this may be the case for the CMSSM and the
NUHMSSM models as well; please advise. <br>
