SUPERSYMMETRY IS DEAD. LONG LIVE SUPERSYMMETRY!

CARLOS WAGNER, UCHICAGO

Searches at the LHC have produced no evidence of new physics at the weak scale. In particular, these searches have put strong constraints on the strongly interacting sector of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, implying that squarks and gluinos must be heavier than about 1 TeV. This has led to the feeling that weak scale supersymmetry is dead. I will explain why this is a premature conclusion, based on the fact that none of the phenomenologically relevant aspects of these models have been properly explored. In particular, the weakly interacting sector, responsible for Dark Matter is still weakly constrained. I will also talk about an excess recently observed at the ATLAS experiment that may provide a hint of supersymmetry at the weak scale, and discuss the associated phenomenology.
