Description

Full text: Theories beyond the Standard Model (BSM) generically predict new particles at the terascale, soon to be explored at the LHC. In many models, the lightest of these particles is stable by virtue of a new discrete symmetry and can hence make an excellent dark matter candidate. This offers the exciting possibility to produce and study dark matter directly in the laboratory. I discuss the potential of experiments at the LHC to determine the properties of dark matter candidates put forward by BSM theories, as well as the interplay with direct and indirect searches for dark matter.
