Abstract

The current status of experimental searches for supersymmetry is reviewed. After a brief exposition of the assumptions determining the mass spectrum of the supersymmetric particles, the signatures corresponding to two supersymmetry breaking mechanisms (gravity and gauge mediated) are analysed. The status of standard topological signatures and standard gauge mediated breaking model signatures is reviewed as well as the experimental effort to cover `singular' areas of the parameter space where degeneracies and/or dynamical suppression of standard topologies exists. The complementarities of different searches is explored and the effort to obtain a model-independent lower experimental limit of the neutralino mass is described.
