Article on 1D deformed quantum harmonic oscillator

Few years ago I was reading an article which I'm trying to find for quite some time but with no success so far. It was a paper about deformation of 1D quantum harmonic oscillator with continuous ...

$(0,2)$ worldsheet SUSY implies ${\cal N}=1$ spacetime SUSY (reference request)

In [1] they write that "Boucher et al. [14] found quite generally that $(0, 2)$ world-sheet SUSY ensures the existence of $N = 1$ spacetime SUSY." But this reference "[14]" they cite just says: "...

SUSY, ways to boost Chargino/Neutralino production?

Does anybody know a good reference that works out the equations for the Chargino/Neutralino production cross section in SUSY? I'm trying to understand if there are any tricks for boosting the ...

Dynamical supersymmetry breaking and Witten index

Witten index, defined as ${\rm Tr}(-1)^F$, determines if supersymmetry is spontaneously broken or not for a given model. However, it is also known that supersymmetry can be dynamically broken. One ...

References for phase-transitions in supersymmetric field theory

Apart from other reasons, recently my interest in this area got piqued when I heard an awesome lecture by Seiberg on the idea of meta-stable-supersymmetry-breaking. I am looking for references on ...

A particular notation about fermions

I am not sure that this notation is specific to supersymmetry theories but I ran into this while studying that. I see people talking of component fields of a chiral superfield as $\phi$ and $\bar{\...
