    Supersymmetry is probably the next big thing.

    Such particles might have ridiculously high energies that the LHC has not yet been able to reach, and if there actually is a higher-level particle zoo like the Standard Model, it might be that things like Dark Matter are part of, if not all of it.

      Form what I’ve heard, it’s less “might” and more “probably do”, and the particle accelerator you’d need to find them if they exist all the way up there would be the size of the whole solar system, or something. Basically, high-energy physics is not a good career path right now.
