Supersymmetry

A quantum approach to data analysis that relies on the study of shapes will likely remain an example of a quantum advantage — albeit for increasingly unlikely scenarios.

Physicists are reexamining a longstanding assumption: that big stuff consists of smaller stuff.

The universe has not cooperated with physicists’ hopes. In desperation, many are looking for new ways to search for surprises at the Large Hadron Collider.

The absence of supersymmetry particles at the Large Hadron Collider has settled a 16-year-old bet among physicists.

Physicists are confronting their “nightmare scenario.” What does the absence of new particles suggest about how nature works?

Two leading candidates for a “theory of everything,” long thought to be incompatible, may be two sides of the same coin.

Three physicists have proposed a new solution to one of the deepest mysteries in particle physics: why the Higgs boson has such a tiny mass.

As the elegant theory of supersymmetry continues to fail experimental tests, physicists debate whether to change course and what the future holds for particle physics.
