## TL;DR

This paper explores how fermion-boson symmetry extends the standard model, predicting new scalar particles and reducing divergences, with proposals for experimental searches at the LHC.

## Contribution

It introduces the concept of scalar quarks and leptons arising from fermion-boson symmetry and discusses their experimental detection methods.

## Key findings

- Prediction of three generations of scalar quarks and leptons
- Reduction of divergences in the standard model perturbation series
- Proposed experimental strategies for detecting new scalar particles

## Abstract

The application of fermion-boson symmetry to the standard model leads to the following: first, there are three generations of scalar quarks and scalar leptons in addition to the known quarks and leptons, and, secondly, the divergences in the perturbation series for the standard model are reduced. In the light of experimental data from LEP, Tevatron Collider, and LHC, some consequences of these two statements taken together are discussed.   A series of experiments are proposed to search for the scalar quarks and scalar leptons at the Large Hadron Collider. The first step in this search is to look for new fermions by analyzing events with a pair of oppositely changed leptons both with large transverse momenta. The scalar quarks and the scalar leptons are then searched for through their decays into these new fermions plus a known quark or lepton.
