Superparticle Signatures: from PAMELA to the LHC

TL;DR

This paper explores the detection prospects of light superparticles, especially gauginos, at the LHC and dark matter experiments, linking recent PAMELA positron anomaly findings to supersymmetry signatures and potential new physics beyond the Standard Model.

Contribution

It provides an analysis of supersymmetry signatures focusing on light superparticles and discusses the implications of recent experimental anomalies for SUSY detection at the LHC.

Findings

Light gauginos could be detectable at the LHC.

The PAMELA positron anomaly may indicate supersymmetric signatures.

New physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model are considered.

Abstract

Signatures of soft supersymmetry breaking at the CERN LHC and in dark matter experiments are discussed with focus drawn to light superparticles, and in particular light gauginos and their discovery prospects. Connected to the above is the recent PAMELA positron anomaly and its implications for signatures of SUSY in early runs at the Large Hadron Collider. Other new possibilities for physics beyond the Standard Model are also briefly discussed.
