Feasibility Study of a Portal to Provide Knowledge about Supersymmetry to Experts

This bachelor thesis is a feasibility study of a web portal closely focused on a theory called Supersymmetry and its research. The theory is very attractive theoretically as it solves fundamental shortcomings of the Standard Model of particle physics. After its theoretical development for elementary particle physics about 50 years ago several hundred searches for Supersymmetric particles have been performed to establish Supersymmetry experimentally. However, despite many experimental searches the theory is not proven. Almost weekly new experimental information about search results for Supersymmetric particles is published and there is no web portal focused on Supersymmetry, which would automatically collect and categorize these articles. Scientists spend much research time looking for the new experimental results. This thesis contains a proposal for a web portal on Supersymmetry, which will have an automated filling database and categorizing system. The feasibility study contains a brief explanation of the concepts of Supersymmetry. Also, the thesis contains a theoretical framework of the analysis that allows the reader to better understand the analyzed resources and time, situation analysis, design of technical solutions, design of the web portal, wireframe and testing of the web portal. The feasibility of a web portal project on Supersymmetry is evaluated positively. The usefulness of the Supersymmetry web portal, resources and time expectation of this project are detailed. Furthermore, requirements are collected and a situation analysis is performed. The roadmap of the project, the detailed implementation plan and recommendations of possible technologies are developed. The wireframe and possible design of a Supersymmetry web portal is created. The testing techniques are recommended. In addition, an analysis is conducted on the subject of usefulness for the general public.
