Did Karl Jakobs look for supersymmetry?
Yes, searching for physics beyond the Standard Model, such as supersymmetry (SUSY), was a significant part of my research program. We designed specific search strategies at the LHC, like looking for events with b-tagged jets and significant missing transverse momentum, which are expected signatures for certain SUSY models. These searches are vital for exploring the theoretical landscape and guiding future investigations into what might lie beyond our current understanding.
