      Wikipedia says yes. I have no idea as I know very little about particle physics.

      Some scientists believe it to be, But i would like to wait for the LHC to operate this time, and see if it can generate the dark matter or the super-symmetric particles. If it doesn’t do this time, probably the theory of super-symmetric particles will go into the backbench as have other theories, and new theories will start coming up!
