Abstract
In this chapter, a particular Beyond Standard Model (BSM) theory, known as Supersymmetry (SUSY), is introduced. Supersymmetry provides the principal motivation for the analysis described in Chap. 10, which looks for final states containing two photons and large missing transverse momentum (see Sect. 6.4).

Notes
- 1.
Dark matter is expected to be composed by relatively slow-moving particles compared to the speed of light (Cold Dark Matter, or CDM), and thus relativistic particle such as the neutrino cannot be a good dark matter candidate.
- 2.
Since dark energy it is not referred as matter, 85% is given by the fraction of dark matter (27%) over the universe matter content (5 \(+\) 27%).
