SUSY discovery strategies at the LHC

Abstract

Current ideas for SUPERSYMMETRY searches at the LHC are reviewed. We analyse the discovery prospects for various supersymmetric particles and describe recent ideas on the possibilities of detailed SUSY studies at the LHC. We also combine today's experimental knowledge with some speculations about what might be known by the year 2005 to provide a realistic picture for the LHC start.
