This talk aims to provide an overview of the theoretical framework, the search strategies and the current status of the results of Dark Matter searches at the LHC. The focus will be restricted to mediator-based Dark Matter models (non-SUSY). Experimental analyses and results will be presented on a selection of the models, using up to 150 ifb of $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collision data...
The existence of dark matter (DM) is a cornerstone of extensive search programs at colliders. The ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have performed a wide range of searches for DM particles predicted in SUSY, in particular for the lightest neutralino in R-parity conserving scenarios. The event topology and final states containing the neutralino DMs depend on the mass eigenstates of the...
The neutral wino and the lightest neutral higgsino are dark-matter candidates. If those are the lightest SUSY particles, the lightest chargino can be long-lived and can travel macroscopic distances then decay in detectors. In such scenarios, dark matter particles can be searched for using a "disappearing track" signature. Such searches have been done at the LHC giving lower limits on their...
