supersymmetry

How To Use supersymmetry In A Sentence

• To break supersymmetry using the F-term, one can add chiral multiplets that transform as singlets under the gauge symmetries in the theory.
• So supersymmetry relates the particles that transmit forces to the particles that make up matter.
• If supersymmetry is discovered, it will also imply strong support for string theories that may even unify gravitation with the other three interactions. The Nobel Prize in Physics 2004 - Information for the Public
• If global supersymmetry doesn't work, then what about local supersymmetry, i.e. supergravity?
• Before string theory won the full attention of the theoretical physics community, the most popular unified theory was an eleven dimensional theory of supergravity, which is supersymmetry combined with gravity.
• Being that the supersymmetry variation of the gravitino is the covariant derivative of the local spinor parameterizing the supersymmetry transformation, this would seem to always imply that the condition for supersymmetry is that there must exist a covariantly constant spinor field.

• Now there's a theory called supersymmetry, which doubles the number of particles in the standard model. Brian Cox on CERN's supercollider
• He talked about the various unresolved problems of the Standard Model, and the hypothetical theory called supersymmetry, which connects particles of matter, called fermions, with particles that carry forces, called bosons. NYT > Home Page
• When supersymmetry is broken, the fermions and bosons don't exactly match any more, the cancellation doesn't occur any more.
• But now put the hierarchy in, specifically low-scale supersymmetry and a TeV-scale gravitino mass. String Theory is Losing the Public Debate
