Description
We present an update of the SARAH to calculate unitarity constraints in BSM models. The new functions can perform an analytical and numerical calculation of the two-particle scattering matrix of (uncoloured) scalars. We do not make use of the simplifying assumption of a very large scattering energy, but include all contributions which could become important at small energies above the weak scale. This allows us to constrain trilinear scalar couplings. However, it can also modify (weakening or strengthening) the constraints on quartic couplings, which we show via the example of a singlet extended Standard Model. (orig.)
