Dark Matter Searches and Combined Interpretations at the ATLAS Experiment at 13 TeV

Dark matter (DM) particles can be produced at the LHC in association with other particles, which mainly come from initial state radiation. Searches for such phenomena in events with jets, photons, electroweak gauge bosons or Higgs bosons recoiling against large missing transverse momentum (originati...

Sumario:Dark matter (DM) particles can be produced at the LHC in association with other particles, which mainly come from initial state radiation. Searches for such phenomena in events with jets, photons, electroweak gauge bosons or Higgs bosons recoiling against large missing transverse momentum (originating from DM particles) in ATLAS at 13 TeV are presented. The results are interpreted in the framework of simplified models with pair production of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and effective field theories. Constraints from dijet searches are compared with results from the “Mono-X” searches, providing combined interpretation in the framework of simplified model.
