\section{Instructions}
This exam/project counts as 20\% of the final grade for the course. The point of the exam is to write a short journal style paper, for an example see~\cite{Barr:2013sla}, reviewing (so no original research necessary) a pre-agreed topic of your own choice.\footnote{Or, lacking the will to choose, by my assignment, although that would be asking for trouble.} Please start by sending me a proposed title and abstract for your paper by the end of Friday 23rd of October. The topic may be any topic in supersymmetry vaguely related to the course content. I will review these by the end of the following week and possibly make suggestions for improvements.

Please limit your final answers to four pages maximum using this \LaTeX--file,\footnote{Well, the \LaTeX--file that generated this {\tt pdf}--file.} and no touching the page layout please! (You are allowed to delete my text though.) Any text beyond four pages will simply be ignored. If you would like to calculate stuff --- always nice --- the following references are used a lot~\cite{Haber:1984rc,Richardson:2000nt}, although (or perhaps because)~\cite{Haber:1984rc} is a classic, it has some horribly confusing conventions.
Please send me a {\tt pdf}--version of your answer minimum two weeks before the final exam.\footnote{No, I don't know when that will be either.\footnote{We will figure it out eventually. Also, this proves footnotes don't really work well within footnotes.}} You are free to collaborate and/or fight with your fellow students as much as you like, however, you should submit individual papers (so no co-authors). You will receive individual feed-back on the paper.
