SUSY explains many things theoretically, but there is absolutely no experimental evidence for it to date. On Tue, Nov 13, 2012 at 6:51 PM, Warren Smith <warren.wds@gmail.com> wrote:

all claim a new particle decay has been detected which, while consistent with Standard Model, is very hard to explain with SUSY models since they would seem to predict it must be very rare.
"Therefore" supersymmetry is wrong, hence string theory is dead meat.
I do not either endorse or dispute this, I'm just pointing out it is there.
Presumably running the experiment longer will clarify things.
