Cathode Ray TubeCathode Ray Tube

Experiments 111 years ago …
fundamental building block of matter
"Could anything at first sight seem more impractical than a body which is so small that its mass is an insignificant fraction of the mass of an atom of hydrogen?"
J.J. Thompson: Cathode rays are material constituents of atoms! bend in electric and magnetic field
Nobel Prize 1906
G.P. Thompson: electrons have wave characterNobel Prize 1937

Supersymmetry ???
Simplest super-symmetric model has 105 new parameters …
Boson Fermion symmetry
Spin ½ quarks spin 0 squarks Spin ½ leptons spin 0 sleptons Spin 1 gauge bosons spin ½ gauginos Spin 0 Higgs spin ½ Higgsino
Many particles to search for! What mass scale? Supersymmetry is broken ...no scalar with mass of electron
Observation: -as missing mass (energy) if non-interacting (lightest neutralino)- from decay into the lower mass standard particles

• What is dark matter?• How are particle physics &
cosmology connected?• What is dark energy?• Where did the anti-matter go?
(CP Violation)
Stars and galaxies are only 0.1%
Neutrinos are ~0.1–10%
Electrons and protons are ~5%
Dark Matter ~25%
Dark Energy ~70%
