Supersimplicity: a remarkable high energy SUSY property

In previous work, we have established that for any 2-to-2 process in MSSM, only the helicity conserving (HC) amplitudes survive asymptotically. Studying a large number of such processes, at the 1loop Electroweak (EW) order, it is now found that their high energy HC amplitudes are determined by just three forms: a log-squared function of the ratio of two of the (s,t,u) variables, to which a pi^2 is added; and two Sudakov-like ln- and ln^2-terms accompanied by respective mass-dependent constants. Apart from an additional residual constant, all high energy HC amplitudes, may be expressed as linear combinations of the above three forms, with coefficients being rational functions of the $(s,t,u)$ variables. We call this fact supersimplicity. Applying to the $ug\to dW$ amplitudes, for which the complete 1loop expressions are available, we find that supersimplicity may be a very good approximation at LHC energies, provided the SUSY scale is not too high. SM processes are also discussed, and their differences are explored.
