I perform research with the , which is located inside the (尝贬颁)听补迟 听in Geneva, Switzerland.听 My main activity is searching for supersymmetry in all-hadronic modes.听 Supersymmetry (SUSY) predicts that all of the fundamental particles have supersymmetric partners (sparticles) that have heretofore been unobserved.听 SUSY is an attractive theory for three reasons.听 First, a sparticle may be the source of dark matter in the universe, explaining a long-running mystery.听 Second, SUSY provides a way out of the hierarchy or naturalness problem about why the Higgs mass is 125 GeV when it should naturally be at a much higher energy.听 Third, with the presence of SUSY, the gauge couplings are found to converge at a high energy scale, opening the possibility of a grand unified theory.听 So far, searches for SUSY have all come back empty but we continue the hunt!
