Beyond the Standard Model (in search of supersymmetry) [online]

The present lectures contain an introduction to low energy
supersymmetry, a new symmetry that relates bosons and fermions,
in particle physics. The Standard Model of fundamental
interactions is briefly reviewed, and the motivation to
introduce supersymmetry is discussed. The main notions of
supersymmetry are introduced. The supersymmetric extension of
the Standard Model - the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model -
is considered in more detail. Phenomenological features of the
MSSM as well as possible experimental signatures of SUSY are
described. An intriguing situation with the supersymmetric Higgs
boson is discussed.
