UH-511-833-95 SUPERSYMMETRY: WHERE IT IS AND HOW TO FIND IT a

We present a pedagogical, but by no means complete, review of weak scale super-symmetry phenomenology. After a general introduction to the new particles that must be present in any supersymmetric framework, we describe how to write down their interactions with one another as well as with the particles of the Standard Model. We then elucidate the assumptions underlying the Minimal Supersymmet-ri...

A few abundant species, such as Cabbage Whites and American Ladies, can literally be found almost anywhere—roadsides, gardens, parks, even vacant city lots.
