  3. Introduction To and From the Hidden Valley Hidden Sector Parameter Scan Five Sample Points Conclusions Helpful Notes on Hidden Valleys Essential Features of a Hidden Valley: • New light sector O ( GeV ) • New heavy sector O ( TeV ) • Feeble SM-light coupling • Efficient heavy-SM and -light couplings At LHC, SM → Heavy → Light → SM New, interesting signals BUT! broad, ill-defined model space

  4. Introduction To and From the Hidden Valley Hidden Sector Parameter Scan Five Sample Points Conclusions Simple Review of Supersymmetry Well-motivated extension of SM • Symmetry relating fermions ↔ bosons • Exception to Coleman-Mandula Theorem • O ( TeV ) -scale partners of SM particles (With opposite spin-statistics) • Solves hierarchy problem R-Parity: • Discrete symmetry: SM Even, New particles Odd • Added for proton stability, DM • Characterises SUSY events

  5. Introduction To and From the Hidden Valley Hidden Sector Parameter Scan Five Sample Points Conclusions Supersymmetric Hidden Valleys A Tasty Blend What do hidden valleys gain from SUSY? • Get heavy sector for free • “Natural” hierarchy of scales • Concrete implementation What does supersymmetry gain? • New phenomenology • Light sectors in GUTs • Light dark matter?
