We study dark matter production at CERN LHC from black hole remnants (BHR). We find that the typical mass of these BHR at LHC is ~ 5-10 TeV which is heavier than other dark matter candidates such as: axion, axino, neutralino etc. We propose…

Models in which the dark matter is very weakly coupled to the observable sector may explain the observed dark matter density, either as a "superWIMP" or as "asymmetric dark matter." Both types of models predict displaced vertices at…
