We study the complementarity between dark matter experiments (direct detection and indirect detections) and accelerator facilities (the CERN LHC and a $\sqrt{s}= 1$ TeV $e^+e^-$ Linear Collider) in the framework of the constrained Minimal…
The complementarity of $e^+e^-$ and $\gamma \gamma$ colliders to discover and explore new physics beyond the Standard Model(SM) is discussed. After briefly surveying a number of various new physics scenarios we concentrate in detail on…
In the standard model of cosmology, dark matter and dark energy are presently the two main contributors to the total energy in the Universe. However, these two dark components are still of unknown nature, and many alternative explanations…
Dark matter is a vital component of the current best model of our universe, $\Lambda$CDM. There are leading candidates for what the dark matter could be (e.g. weakly-interacting massive particles, or axions), but no compelling observational…
Scaling relations among dark matter (DM) and stellar quantities are a valuable tool to constrain formation scenarios and the evolution of galactic structures. However, most of the DM properties are actually not directly measured, but…
Dark matter's existence is known thanks to its gravitational interaction with Standard Model particles, but it remains unknown whether this is the only force present between them. While many searches for such new interactions with dark…
New constraints on the expansion rate of the Universe seem to favor evolving dark energy in the form of thawing quintessence models, i.e., models for which a canonical, minimally coupled scalar field has, at late times, begun to evolve away…
The document discusses a proposed extension to the Standard Model that aims to explain the presence of neutrino masses and the existence of dark matter. The model includes two potential candidates for dark matter, a vector WIMP and a…
A discussion is presented of results with identified particles at the Large Hadron Collider. Possible deviations from the standard statistical distributions are investigated by considering in detail results obtained using the Tsallis…
I review some aspects of $K$ and $B$ physics both in the context of the standard model and in some cases in a scenario which is rather different from the standard model. I discuss, in particular, where we are likely to see deviations from…
In this thesis, we discuss theoretical properties of various Higgs sectors, and we analyze constraints from current experimental data, and then we study collider signatures in each Higgs sector. In Part I, we focus on the phenomenology of…
We revisit the two real singlet extension of the Standard Model with a $Z_2\times Z_2^\prime$ symmetry. One of the singlet scalars $S_2$, by virtue of an unbroken $Z_2^\prime$ symmetry, plays the role of a stable dark matter candidate. The…
We explore the multi-component dark matter (DM) scenario considered in a simple extension of the standard model with an inert scalar doublet and a singlet fermionic field providing the two DM candidates. The DM states are made stable under…
In light of recent data from direct detection experiments and the Large Hadron Collider, we explore models of dark matter in which an SU(2) doublet is mixed with a Standard Model singlet. We impose a thermal history. If the new particles…
We propose a two-component dark matter (DM) scenario by extending the Standard Model with two additional $SU(2)_L$ doublets, one scalar, and another fermion. To ensure the stability of the DM components, we impose a global $Z_2 \times…
The search for Dark Matter (DM) at colliders is primarily pursued via the detection of missing energy in particular final states. These searches are based on the production and decay processes where final states include DM particles and at…
In this work we have considered a minimal extension of Standard Model by a local $U(1)$ gauge group in order to accommodate a stable (fermionic) Dark Matter (DM) candidate. We have focussed on parameter regions where DM possesses adequate…
We present the results and prospects for searches beyond the Standard Model (SM) at the LHC by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. The minimal supersymmetric extension of the SM has been investigated in various configurations and lower limits…
I review the current status of dark matter searches using direct, indirect and accelerator techniques. A detailed review of individual experiments is beyond the scope of these proceedings. I focus instead on the challenges (sometimes…
Within the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), we explore a decoupling of the parameters into separate sectors that determine consistency with collider data, the abundance of dark matter, and potential signatures…
