Susy and the Lords of the Ring
The last decade in physics has led to a dizzying array of new ideas including one called supersymmetry. If valid, Nature may begin to reveal the existence of “superpartners,” new forms of matter and energy. Such hypothetical objects already have names like selectrons, squarks, sneutrinos and winos. What are these things? How does humanity learn more about them? In Geneva, Switzerland nearing completion is a ring that will help rule on them all. It is called the LHC (Large Hadron Collider).Come to this lecture and see if you wish to join this Fellowship of the Ring.
