I review phenomenologically interesting aspects of supersymmetry. First I point out that the discovery of the positron can be regarded as a historic analogue to the would-be discovery of supersymmetry. Second I review the recent topics on…
The known fundamental symmetries and interactions are well described by the Standard Model. Features of this powerful theory, which are described but not deeper explained, are addressed in a variety of speculative models. Experimental tests…
Model-independent search strategies have been increasingly proposed in recent years because on the one hand there has been no clear signal for new physics and on the other hand there is a lack of a highly probable and parameter-free…
We propose exploiting symmetries (exact or approximate) of the Standard Model (SM) to search for physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) using the data-directed paradigm (DDP). Symmetries are very powerful because they provide two samples…
We calculate the low-lying spectrum of new particles expected in a minimal model wherein supersymmetry breaking at < 100 TeV is indirectly transmitted to the Standard Model. We calculate the couplings of these particles relevant to their…
The search for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) at collider experiments requires model-independent strategies to avoid missing possible discoveries of unexpected signals. Anomaly detection (AD) techniques offer a promising approach…
The structure of the MSSM is reviewed. We first motivate the particle content of the theory by examining the quantum numbers of the known standard model particles and by the requirement of anomaly cancellation. Once the particle content is…
Supersymmetry (SUSY) is one of the most interesting and comprehensively studied models for new physics beyond the Standard Model. If SUSY exists in nature the Large Hadron Collider will provide excellent opportunities to search for SUSY.…
We consider extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) where the extra degrees of freedom interact weakly with the Higgs sector. These models allow to relax the tension between the lower bound on the lightest CP even…
Constraints on couplings of several Beyond Standard Model Physics scenarios, mediated by massive intermediate particles including (1) Extra Z-prime, (2) New Light Spin-1 Boson, and (3) Charged Higgs Boson, are placed via neutrino-electron…
The Standard Model is by far the most encompassing physics theory. With the recent discovery of the Higgs Boson, the Standard Model has performed extremely well against experimental data. However, the theory is intrinsically not complete,…
Higgs boson may serve as a portal to new physics beyond the standard model (BSM) which is implied by theoretical naturalness or experimental anomalies. In this note we briefly survey some Higgs-related BSM physics models, including the low…
Using a frequentist analysis of experimental constraints within two versions of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, we derive the predictions for the top quark mass, m_t, and the W boson mass, m_W. We find that the…
In this thesis two signals pointing beyond the Standard Model are discussed. The first signal is the presence of baryonic matter around us. The possibility of baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) was studied. The…
The prospects for Higgs boson discovery and study at present and future colliders are reviewed, with emphasis on the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) states. The expected experimental coverages with different production and…

The prospects for the search of the Standard Model Higgs boson with the CMS experiment at the LHC are presented. The analyses rely on a full simulation of the detector response and emphasis is put on explicit strategies for the measurement…
Within the framework of the Standard Model, the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking is unstable to radiative corrections. We discuss two broad classes of models of new physics (one with a strongly interacting and the other with a…

Concrete semi-realistic string/M theory constructions often predict the existence of new physics at the TeV scale, which may be different in character from the bottom-up ideas that are motivated by specific problems of the standard model. I…
