Decline and Fall of the Standard Model?
Motivations for physics beyond the Standard Model are reviewed, with
particular emphasis on supersymmetry at the TeV scale. Constraints on the
minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with universal soft
supersymmetry-breaking terms (CMSSM) are discussed. These are also combined
with the supersymmetric interpretation of the anomalous magnetic moment of the
muon. The prospects for observing supersymmetry at accelerators are reviewed
using benchmark scenarios to focus the discussion. Prospects for other
experiments are discussed, including the detection of cold dark matter, mu -> e
gamma and related processes, as well as proton decay.Comment: Invited talk at 20th International Symposium on Lepton and Photon

Current Issues in the Phenomenology of Particle Physics
The present status of the Standard Model and its experimental tests are
reviewed, including indications on the likely mass of the Higgs boson. Also
discussed are the motivations for supersymmetry and grand unification, searches
for sparticles at LEP, neutrino oscillations, and the prospects for physics at
the LHC.Comment: 32 pages, LaTeX, 10 figures (included), Invited plenary talk
