We document the activities performed during the second MadAnalysis 5 workshop on LHC recasting, that was organised in KIAS (Seoul, Korea) on February 12-20, 2020. We detail the implementation of 12 new ATLAS and CMS searches in the MadAnalysis 5 Public Analysis Database, and the associated validation procedures. Those searches probe the production of extra gauge and scalar/pseudoscalar bosons, supersymmetry, seesaw models and deviations from the Standard Model in four-top production.

A short introduction to N = 1 supergravity in four dimensions in the superspace approach is given emphasizing on all steps to obtain the final Lagrangian. In particular, starting from geometrical principles and the introduction of superfields in curved superspace, the action coupling matter and gauge fields to supergravity is derived. This paper is based on the book [M. Rausch de Traubenberg and M. Valenzuela, A Supergravity Primer: From Geometrical Principles to the Final Lagrangian (World Scientific, 2020)] and on several lectures given at the doctoral school of Strasbourg.
