If new physics is found at the LHC (and the ILC) the reconstruction of the underlying theory should not be biased by assumptions about high--scale models. For the mapping of many measurements onto high--dimensional parameter spaces we…
We investigate the potentials of future high energy lepton-proton colliders to detect supersymmetric particles in the charged current type $lp\to\tilde\nu_l\tilde qX$, $l=e,\mu$, reactions. We also study their decays by using the mass…
We predict the exact gaugino mass relation near the electroweak scale at one loop for gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking in F-theory SU(5) and SO(10) models with U(1)_Y and U(1)_{B-L} fluxes, respectively. The gaugino mass relation…
One of the most interesting channels to search for SUSY is the direct pair-production of the $\tau$-lepton superpartner, $\widetilde{\tau}$. The $\widetilde{\tau}$ is with high probability the lightest of the scalar leptons, so one of the…
The first 1/fb of LHC searches have set impressive limits on new colored particles decaying to missing energy. We address the implication of these searches for naturalness in supersymmetry (SUSY). General bottom-up considerations of natural…
Many theoretical and experimental results on the reach of the Large Hadron Collider are based on the mSUGRA-inspired scenario with universal soft supersymmetry breaking parameters at the apparent gauge coupling unification scale. We study…
The physics program of high energy e+e- linear colliders relies on the accurate identification of fermions to study in details the profile of the Higgs boson, search for new particles and later probe the multi-TeV mass region by direct…
The study of strong symmetry breaking at an e+e linear collider with sqrt(s)=0.5-1.5 TeV is reviewed. It is shown that processes such as e+e- --> nu nubar W+ W-, e+e- --> nu nubar t tbar, and and e+e- --> W+ W- can be used to measure chiral…
Currently available experimental data from electroweak precision observables (EWPO), B-physics observables (BPO) and cosmological data can be combined to extract the preferred value of SUSY mass scales. We review recent results on the…
We re-evaluate prospects for supersymmetry at the proposed International Linear $e^+e^-$ Collider (ILC) in light of the first year of serious data taking at LHC with $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV and $\sim 5$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions (LHC7). Strong…
We present the latest results from the MasterCode Collaboration on supersymmetric models, in particular on the CMSSM, the NUHM1, the NUHM2 and the pMSSM. We combine the data from LHC Run I with astrophysical observables, flavor and…
In supersymmetric (SUSY) models with the gravitino being the lightest SUSY particle (LSP), the SUSY breaking scale (i.e., the gravitino mass) could be determined by measuring the lifetime of the next-to-lightest SUSY particle (NLSP).…
The next-generation high-energy facilities, the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the prospective $e^+e^-$ International Linear Collider (ILC), are expected to unravel new structures of matter and forces from the electroweak scale to the…
Recent high precision calculations for production processes of the SUSY particles at the next linear collider are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the input parameter definition. Numerical results for the SPS1a' benchmark point as…

The direct pair-production of the $\tilde{\tau}$, is one of the most interesting channels to search for SUSY in: the $\tilde{\tau}$ is likely to be the lightest of the scalar leptons, and the signature of $\tilde{\tau}$ pair production is…
So far, no supersymmetric particles have been detected at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). However, the recent Higgs results have interesting implications for the SUSY parameter space. In this paper, we study the consequences of an LHC…
Particle physicists at the Large Hadron Collider investigate the properties of matter at subatomic length scales by colliding together bunches of high-energy protons and observing the decay products of the collisions. ATLAS is one of two…
We investigate squark and gluino pair production at LHC(CMS) for the case of nonuniversal gaugino masses. Visibility of signal by an excess over SM background in $(n \geq 2)jets + E^{miss}_T + (m \geq leptons)$ events depends rather…
We perform a complete analysis of the supersymmetric particle spectrum in the Minimal Supergravity (mSUGRA) model where the soft SUSY breaking scalar masses, gaugino masses and trilinear couplings are unified at the GUT scale, so that the…
