Our present understanding of Nature at its most elementary level is contained in the standard model (SM) of particle physics. In spite of being confirmed emphatically in a multitude of experiments, it is believed by many that a grander structure is required at much higher energies in order to overcome some of the short-comings of the SM. These motivations are explained. Some aspects and experimental probes of two of the most promising of these theoretical proposals - supersymmetry and extra (space) dimensions - are considered in detail.

Autorenporträt
The author works in theoretical particle physics. His emphasis ison extensions of the standard model, and testing them at the CERNLarge Hadron Collider (LHC). He also works on cosmology,particularly dark matter. He holds a Ph.D. from the University ofCalifornia, Davis, and is a staff member at the Institute ofMathematical Sciences.
