Description

The LHC Dark Matter Working Group (LHC DM WG) brings together theorists and experimentalists to provide the benchmark models, interpretation, and characterisation needed for a robust and broad set of searches for dark matter at the LHC. I will discuss the work of the LHC DM WG, and its predecessor the ATLAS/CMS Dark Matter Forum---the interaction between theory and experiment, the types of signals being considered for LHC Run-2 searches, the evolving interpretation of the LHC results alongside direct and indirect detection, and the future.
