Abstract

The presence of a non-baryonic Dark Matter (DM) component in the Universe is inferred from the observation of its gravitational interaction. The ATLAS and CMS experiments located at the LHC have developed a broad search program for DM candidates, including resonance searches for the mediator and searches with large missing transverse momentum. Additionally, searches have been conducted in models where the Higgs Sector and the Dark Sector are connected leading for example to invisible Higgs boson decays. The results of recent searches on 13 TeV $pp$ data, their interplay and interpretation are presented.

Strengths

- The scope of the research is important: search for Dark Matter candidates at the LHC
- This proceedings compiles and discusses results of recent searches on 13 TeV pp data and their interplay and interpretation are presented.

Weaknesses

None

Report

In these proceedings the author reports a wide range of analyses of data from ATLAS and CMS which involve final states with jets to explore the Dark Sector. The results show no evidence for Dark Matter candidates.

This is an important compilation of the curent LHC data which in my opinion warrants publication in this journal.
