Searching for dark matter (DM) at colliders is one of the biggest challenges in high-energy physics today. Significant efforts have been made to detect DM within the mass range of 1-10,000 GeV at the Large Hadron Collider and other…
Dynamical dark matter (DDM) is a new framework for dark-matter physics in which the dark sector comprises an ensemble of individual component fields which collectively conspire to act in ways that transcend those normally associated with…
In the framework of hypercolor extension of the Standard Model having vectorlike hyperquarks and two stable dark matter candidates originated from different hyper-currents, we consider some effects which result from reactions with…
The complementarity between dark matter searches at colliders and in underground laboratories is an extraordinarily powerful tool in the quest for dark matter. In the vast majority of the analyses conducted so far these dark matter…
Transverse momentum spectra, $d^2\sigma/(d\eta dp_T^2)$, of charged hadron production in $pp$-collisions are considered in terms of a recently introduced two component model. The shapes of the particle distributions vary as a function of…
The increasing observational pressure on the standard cosmological model motivates analyses going beyond the paradigm of the collision-less cold dark matter (DM). Since the only clear evidence for the existence of DM is based on…
Let $(X\_1,\ldots,X\_n)$ be a $d$-dimensional i.i.d sample from a distribution with density $f$. The problem of detection of a two-component mixture is considered. Our aim is to decide whether $f$ is the density of a standard Gaussian…
In the present work we examine the possibility of detecting light dark matter particles (WIMP) utilizing their possible interactions with the electrons. Employing reasonable theoretical models we evaluate the expected event rates in the…
We consider a model of two-component dark matter based on a hidden $U(1)_D$ symmetry, in which relic densities of the dark matter are determined by forbidden channels and thermal freeze-out. The hidden $U(1)_D$ symmetry is spontaneously…
Astrophysical observations spanning dwarf galaxies to galaxy clusters indicate that dark matter (DM) halos are less dense in their central regions compared to expectations from collisionless DM N-body simulations. Using detailed fits to DM…
We investigate a two-component dark matter scenario in the type-I two-Higgs-doublet model. The dark sector contains a real scalar $s$ and a Dirac fermion $\chi$, whose stability is ensured by a $Z_4$ symmetry together with kinematic…
Dark Matter (DM) comprising particles in the mass range of a few MeV to GeV is waiting to be explored, given the many theoretical models accommodating cosmological abundance. We hereby propose an experiment with the LHC proton beam of 7 TeV…
Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and axions are arguably the most compelling dark matter candidates in the literature. Could they coexist as dark matter particles? More importantly, can they be incorporated in a well motivated…
A weakly interacting dark-matter particle may be difficult to discover at an accelerator because it either (1) is too massive, (2) has no standard-model gauge interactions, or (3) is almost degenerate with other states. In each of these…
We explore the stopping effect that results from interactions between dark matter and nuclei as the dark matter particles travel undergound towards the detector. Although this effect is negligible for heavy dark matter particles, there is…
A fraction of the dark matter may consist of a particle species that interacts much more strongly with the Standard Model than a typical weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) of similar mass. Such a strongly interacting dark matter…
We study a dark matter model constructed by extending the standard model with an inert $\mathrm{SU}(2)_\mathrm{L}$ sextuplet scalar of hypercharge 1/2. The sextuplet components are split by the quartic couplings between the sextuplet and…
Searches for dark matter (DM) constituents are presently mainly focused on axions and WIMPs despite the fact that far higher mass constituents are viable. We discuss and dispute whether axions exist and those arguments for WIMPs which arise…
We investigate early discovery signals for supersymmetry at the Large Hadron Collider without using information about missing transverse energy. Instead we use cuts on the number of jets and isolated leptons (electrons and/or muons). We…
We consider models where a massive spin-two resonance acts as the mediator between Dark Matter (DM) and the SM particles through the energy-momentum tensor. We examine the effective theory for fermion, vector and scalar DM generated in…
