Traditionally, the constituents of matter (fermions) were regarded as different from the particles (bosons) transmitting the forces between them. In supersymmetry, fermions and bosons are unified. Intended for graduate students in particle physics, and researchers in experimental and phenomenological supersymmetry, this textbook, first published in 2007, provides a simple introduction to a previously formidably technical field. Its elementary, practical treatment brings readers to the frontier of contemporary research, in particular the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider. Theories are constructed through an intuitive 'trial and error' approach. Basic elements of spinor formalism and superfields are introduced, allowing readers to access more advanced treatments. Emphasis is placed on physical understanding, and on detailed derivations of important steps. Many short exercises are included, making for a valuable and accessible self-study tool. 606 $aSupersymmetry 615 0$aSupersymmetry. 676 $a539.725 700 $aAitchison$b Ian Johnston Rhind$f1936-$040467 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453961503321 996 $aSupersymmetry in particle physics$92449861 997 $aUNINA
