SUMMARY:Very Light Stops at the LHC\, Theory Seminar (High Energy/Cosm
 ology)\, David Morrissey\, TRIUMF
DESCRIPTION:Supersymmetry can stabilize the weak scale against quantum
  corrections\, produce a viable dark matter candidate\, and provide an
  explanation for the excess of matter over antimatter.  If supersymmet
 ry is realized in Nature\, for every known particle there exists a sup
 erpartner particle differing in spin by half a unit.  Stops\, the spin
 -zero superpartners of the top quark\, play a key role in determining 
 the phenomenological signals of supersymmetry.  In this talk I will di
 scuss the many reasons why at least one of the stops might have a mass
  only slightly above the weak scale\, and I will describe some of the 
 ways that such a light stop can be searched for and discovered at the 
 LHC.
