Bayesian Approach to Investigating Supersymmetric Models
@inproceedings{Fowlie2013BayesianAT,
title={Bayesian Approach to Investigating Supersymmetric Models},
author={Andrew Fowlie},
year={2013}
}With Bayesian statistics, constrained and phenomenological supersymmetric models are examined and compared with the strongest contemporary experimental results, including the Higgs discovery, Large Hadron Collider (LHC) searches for supersymmetry, dark matter relic density measurements, rare decays and electroweak precision tests. Preliminary introductions to relevant supersymmetry phenomenology, Bayesian statistics and algorithms, and comprehensive descriptions of likelihood functions for…
