3.  Supersymmetrized Standard Model between Fermions and Bosons with unification of gauge couplings SUSY Dark Matter  Cosmologically a natural dark matter (DM) candidate ( stable neutralino ) ( stable neutralino ) 3  Supergravity (mSUGRA or CMSSM) models, the lightest neutralino is the stable LSP which escapes the detector the lightest neutralino is the stable LSP which escapes the detector  stau-neutralino co-annihilation processes may be sensitive to the amount of dark matter relic density observed by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP)

4. 4  SUSY signature at the LHC is involved with high multiplicity of energetic jets because squark and gluino pairs are dominant at the pp collisions, a large momentum imbalance in the detector (from LSP CDM candidate), and the Taus in the stau-neutralino co- annihilation region SUSY Signature
