Supersymmetry: The Final Countdown

  • 1. Bethe Center for Theoretical Physics and Physikalisches Institut der Universitaet Bonn, Nussallee 12, 53115 Bonn (Germany)

Description

There is hope that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will tell us about the fate of supersymmetry at the TeVscale. Therefore we might try to identify our expectations for the discovery of SUSY, especially in the first years of operation of this machine. In this talk we shall concentrate on the simplest SUSY scheme: the MSSM with SUSY broken in a hidden sector mediated by interactions of gravitational strength (gravity-, modulus and mirage-mediation). Such a situation might be favoured in a large class of string inspired models. There is a good chance to identify such simple schemes by knowing the properties of the gaugino mass spectrum such as the gluino/neutralino mass ratios.
