The `LEP paradox'

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Is there a Higgs? Where is it? Is supersymmetry there? Where is it? By discussing these questions, we call attention to the `LEP paradox', which is how we see the naturalness problem of the Fermi scale after a decade of electroweak precision measurements, mostly done at LEP.
