Direct search for neutralino dark matter is analyzed in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model, using a realistic evaluation of the neutralino relic abundance which also includes radiative corrections to the Higgs masses. Relevance of the present (Ge detectors) experimental data to set constraints on the parameters of the model is discussed and expectations for future experiments which involve neutralino-nucleus coherent processes are investigated. These results are compared to those obtained in a previous paper from indirect search data. In the present analysis particular attention is paid to the theoretical uncertainties due to the different estimates of the Higgs-nucleon coupling strength.

Motivations for physics beyond the Standard Model are reviewed, with particular emphasis on supersymmetry at the TeV scale. Constraints on the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with universal soft supersymmetry-breaking terms (CMSSM) are discussed. These are also combined with the supersymmetric interpretation of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. The prospects for observing supersymmetry at accelerators are reviewed using benchmark scenarios to focus the discussion. Prospects for other experiments including the detection of cold dark matter, μ → e γ and related processes, as well as proton decay are also discussed.

A gluino can decay into a color-singlet neutral fermion [Formula: see text] by radiating off a gluon. We study this process in a minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. A significant branching fraction is possible depending on how much [Formula: see text] overlaps with the Higgs fermion which couples to the t quark and the mass of the t quark itself.

In the context of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, we discuss the impact of the decays of the neutral Higgs bosons into supersymmetric particles, charginos/neutralinos and sfermions. We show that these decay modes could be dominant, when they are kinematically accessible, thus strongly suppressing the branching ratios for the decay channels which are used to detect the Higgs bosons at hadron colliders. These SUSY decay modes should therefore not be overlooked in the search for the Higgs particles at the LHC.
