Theoretical research in elementary particle physics will concern various aspects of supersymmetric quantum field theory. This theory relates "fermions" such as quarks to "bosons" such as the particles whose exchange produces the basic forces of nature. Major thrusts will include the interplay between supersymmetry and topological charges, which are reflections of the broad shapes of physical systems, and ways in which results for supersymmetric theories yield results for non-supersymmetric theories. Supersymmetry is an attractive approach to the solution of long-standing riddles in elementary particle physics, and the thrusts of this research are regarded as promising avenues of work within supersymmetry.

基本粒子物理学的理论研究将涉及超对称量子场论的各个方面。该理论将“费米子”（如夸克）与“玻色子”（如交换产生自然基本力的粒子）联系起来。主要的推力将包括超对称和拓扑电荷之间的相互作用，这是物理系统的广义形状的反映，以及超对称理论的结果产生非超对称理论的结果的方式。超对称是解决基本粒子物理中长期存在的谜题的一种有吸引力的方法，这项研究的重点被认为是超对称工作的有前途的途径。
