Over and above the aesthetic and theoretical motivations from string theory, there are several longstanding pheno- menological motivations for TeV-scale super- symmetry, such as the electroweak scale, and the lightest supersymmetric particle as cold dark matter. Run 1 of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has actually provided three extra motivations, namely the stabilization of the electroweak vacuum, and successful predictions for the Higgs mass and couplings. There are several examples of emergent supersymmetry, the most recent being on the surfaces of topological insulators, and some sort of effective supersymmetry could be useful for boosting the power of laser arrays. At the LHC, attention is moving towards signatures that had previously been neglected, such as long-lived charged particles-which might be an opportunity for the MoEDAL experiment. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue 'Topological avatars of new physics'.
除了弦理论的美学和理论动机之外，还有几个长期存在的现象学动机促使人们在 TeV 能标上寻求超对称性，例如电弱标度以及作为冷暗物质的最轻超对称粒子。大型强子对撞机（LHC）的第一次运行实际上提供了三个额外的动机，即电弱真空的稳定化，以及对 Higgs 质量和耦合的成功预测。有几个涌现超对称性的例子，最近的一个是在拓扑绝缘体的表面上，某种有效的超对称性可能有助于提高激光阵列的功率。在 LHC 上，人们的注意力正在转向以前被忽视的特征，例如长寿命带电粒子——这可能是 MoEDAL 实验的一个机会。本文是讨论会议议题“新物理的拓扑化身”的一部分。
