Are There Fundamental Scalars The Search For The Higgs And Supersymmetry In Run Ii

The Run II Tevatron collider program at Fermilab may be poised at the edge of a discovery that would revolutionize our understanding of the Universe. The Tevatron will be the preeminent high energy physics facility for the next five years with a correspondingly rich physics program. Central to this program is the search for the Higgs boson. There are strong theoretical and experimental arguments that this 'holy grail' of particle physics is close at hand. In this talk, I will describe the experimental strategies and challenges of the Run II Higgs boson search. In its simplest incarnation, the Higgs boson has undesirable 'features' that strongly suggest the existence of new physics beyond the Standard Model; the leading candidate for which is Supersymmetry. Supersymmetry is a phenomenologically rich theory resulting in a large variety of possible signatures. After summarizing the prospects for observing Supersymmetric Higgs bosons, I will close with an overview of the search strategies for Supersymmetric elementary particles.
