Spectroscopy of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric SU(3) Yang-Mills theory

Understand

Supersymmetric gauge theories are an important building block for extensions of the standard model.

• As a first step towards Super-QCD we investigate the pure gauge sector with gluons and gluinos on the lattice, in particular the low energy mass spectrum: meson-like gluinoballs, gluino-glueballs and pure glueballs.
• We report on some first calculations performed with clover improved Wilson fermions on rather small lattices.
• The supersymmetric continuum limit and particle masses are discussed and compared to predictions from effective field theory.
