According to the documentary particle fever, the precise value of the higgs boson's mass could give more credence to either susy or multiverse theories If the mass had been 115 gev or below susy w. I don't understand what this means 4 supergravity by daniel z freedman and antoine van proeyen is quite excellent for illustrating clifford algebra techniques and calculations in the classical susy/sugra in general (in the component formalism) The book has several calculations illustrated and plenty of exercises. A question in four parts
What are the main problems which supersymmetry purports to solve What would constitute lack of evidence for susy at the proposed lhc energy scales (e.g In strathdeee's extended poincare supersymmetry, the first entry on page 16 lists the massless multiplets of 6d $\\mathcal{n} = (1,0)$ supersymmetry as $2^2 = (2,1 Of the anticommutators $\ {s,q\}$ and cannot be anomalous without breaking scft. So what is the general mathematical definition of bps states which is independent of the theory in consideration, say a general susy quantum field theories, be it qft, string theory, gravity and in any dimension. I am struggling to understand the argument for why the introduction of a stop in susy can solve the hierarchy problem
