Supersymmetry Beyond Minimality

From Theory to Experiment

de Shaaban Khalil, Stefano Moretti ...

Series series Series in High Energy Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation
Supersymmetry (SUSY) is one of the most important ideas ever conceived in particle physics. It is a symmetry that relates known elementary particles of a certain spin to as yet undiscovered particles that differ by half a unit of that spin (known as Superparticles). Supersymmetric models now stand as the most promising candidates for a unified theory beyond the Standard Model (SM).SUSY is an ... Leer más
