TASI 2014 Lectures: The Hunt for Dark Matter

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-12 v2

Abstract

These lectures, given at the 2014 Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI), are an introduction to what we know at present about dark matter and the major current experimental and observational efforts to identify what it consists of. They attempt to present the complexities of the subject, making clear common simplifying assumptions, to better understand the reach of dark matter searches.
