Mono-everything: combined limits on dark matter production at colliders from multiple final states
Searches for dark matter production at particle colliders are complementary to direct-detection and indirect-detection experiments and especially powerful for small masses, mχ<100 GeV. An important collider dark matter signature is due to the production of a pair of these invisible particles wit...

Sumario: | Searches for dark matter production at particle colliders are complementary to direct-detection and indirect-detection experiments and especially powerful for small masses, mχ<100 GeV. An important collider dark matter signature is due to the production of a pair of these invisible particles with the initial-state radiation of a standard model particle. Currently, collider searches use individual and nearly orthogonal final states to search for initial-state jets, photons or massive gauge bosons. We combine these results across final states and across experiments to give the strongest current collider-based limits in the context of effective field theories and map these to limits on dark matter interactions with nuclei and to dark matter self-annhiliation. |
