  2. Supersymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersymmetry

    A supersymmetric theory is a theory in which the equations for force and the equations for matter are identical. In theoretical and mathematical physics, any theory with this property has the principle of supersymmetry (SUSY). Dozens of supersymmetric theories exist. [3]

  3. Supersymmetric quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersymmetric_quantum...

    To make progress on these problems, physicists developed supersymmetric quantum mechanics, an application of the supersymmetry superalgebra to quantum mechanics as opposed to quantum field theory. It was hoped that studying SUSY's consequences in this simpler setting would lead to new understanding; remarkably, the effort created new areas of ...

  4. Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_Supersymmetric...

    The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is an extension to the Standard Model that realizes supersymmetry.MSSM is the minimal supersymmetrical model as it considers only "the [minimum] number of new particle states and new interactions consistent with "Reality". [1]

  5. N = 1 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_=_1_supersymmetric_Yang...

    In theoretical physics, more specifically in quantum field theory and supersymmetry, supersymmetric Yang–Mills, also known as super Yang–Mills and abbreviated to SYM, is a supersymmetric generalization of Yang–Mills theory, which is a gauge theory that plays an important part in the mathematical formulation of forces in particle physics.

  6. N = 4 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_=_4_supersymmetric_Yang...

    In D=4 spacetime dimensions, N=4 is the maximal number of supersymmetries or supersymmetry charges. [1] SYM theory is a toy theory based on Yang–Mills theory; it does not model the real world, but it is useful because it can act as a proving ground for approaches for attacking problems in more complex theories. [2]

  7. 4D N = 1 global supersymmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4D_N_=_1_global_supersymmetry

    In supersymmetry, 4D = global supersymmetry is the theory of global supersymmetry in four dimensions with a single supercharge.It consists of an arbitrary number of chiral and vector supermultiplets whose possible interactions are strongly constrained by supersymmetry, with the theory primarily fixed by three functions: the Kähler potential, the superpotential, and the gauge kinetic matrix.

  8. Wess–Zumino model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wess–Zumino_model

    In theoretical physics, the Wess–Zumino model has become the first known example of an interacting four-dimensional quantum field theory with linearly realised supersymmetry. In 1974, Julius Wess and Bruno Zumino studied, using modern terminology, dynamics of a single chiral superfield (composed of a complex scalar and a spinor fermion ...

  9. N = 8 supergravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_=_8_supergravity

    The theory contains 1 graviton (spin 2), 8 gravitinos (spin 3/2), 28 vector bosons (spin 1), 56 fermions (spin 1/2), 70 scalar fields (spin 0) where we don't distinguish particles with negative spin. These numbers are simple combinatorial numbers that come from Pascal's Triangle and also the number of ways of writing n as a sum of 8 nonnegative ...
