Supersymmetri (SUSY) är en av de teoretiskt bäst motiverade modellerna för fysik bortom standardmodellen (BSM), och en lovande kandidat för upptäckt vid Large Hadron Collider (LHC). ATLAS-kollaborationen har utfört omfattande sökningar efter SUSY-signaturer med hjälp av data från proton-proton kollisioner i LHC, tagna under 2010, 2011 och 2012 års tid vid energier på 7 TeV och mer nyligen 8 TeV.
