1. Unveiling the nature of dark matter with direct detection experiments
Sammanfattning : The desire of discovery is an anthropic need which characterises and connects the human being over the eras. In particular, observing the sky is an instinctive drive exerted by the curiosity of the mysteries which it retains. LÄS MER
2. Dark Matter in the Solar System, Galaxy, and Beyond
Sammanfattning : There is evidence that dark matter constitutes a majority of the Universe's matter content. Yet, we are ignorant about its nature. Understanding dark matter requires new physics, possibly in the form of a new species of fundamental particles. LÄS MER
3. Phenomenology of Inert Scalar and Supersymmetric Dark Matter
Sammanfattning : While the dark matter has so far only revealed itself through the gravitational influence it exerts on its surroundings, there are good reasons to believe it is made up by WIMPs – a hypothetical class of heavy elementary particles not encompassed by the Standard Model of particle physics. The Inert Doublet Model constitutes a simple extension of the Standard Model Higgs sector. LÄS MER
4. Dark Matter Phenomenology in Astrophysical Systems
Sammanfattning : There is now a great deal of evidence in support of the existence of a large amount of unseen gravitational mass, commonly called dark matter, from observations in astrophysical systems of sizes ranging from that of dwarf galaxies to the scale of the entire Universe. One of the most promising explanations for this unseen mass is that it consists of a species of unobserved elementary particles. LÄS MER
5. Dark Matter, Ancient Rocks, a Band of Higgs Bosons, and a Big Collider : or, Models of New Physics and Some Ways to Probe Them
Sammanfattning : The past ~ 50 years have seen a remarkable success of particle physics. In the 1970s, the Standard Model was formulated and in 2012 its final ingredient, the Higgs boson, was discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The Standard Model describes virtually all particle physics observable in the laboratory. LÄS MER
