Although the Standard Model of strong and electroweak
interactions describesparticle physics phenomena up to the
vector boson mass scale very well, it is in general believed
that it is not the ultimate theory. The aim of this series
of seminars was to initiate discussions between field
theorists and phenomenologically oriented high energy
physicists on the observable consequenses of the concept of
SUSY. The subjects covered by the individual contributions
include an introduction to the basic features of SUSY
models, in particular the minimal supersymmetric Standard
Model, followed by discussions of the theoretical
predictions and experimental findings on the particle
content and mass spectra, cosmological consequenses,
indirect manifestations through quantum effects, radiative
corrections in the supersymmetric Higgs sector, and the
concept of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking in the
context ofSUSY. These topics are treated at a level
appropriate for advanced students.However, the book should
also be useful for teachers and researchers.
