Artwork conceptualising supersymmetry - stock illustration

Particle physics supersymmetry. Conceptual illustration showing the standard model particles with their heavier superpartners introduced by the supersymmetry (SUSY) principle. In supersymmetry force and matter are treated identically. Using supersymmetry, physicists may find solutions for a bunch of problems like the weakness of gravity, the low mass of the Higgs boson, the unification of forces or even dark matter.
