This book discusses searches for Dark Matter at the CERN's LHC, the
world's most powerful accelerator. It introduces the relevant
theoretical framework and includes an in-depth discussion of the
Effective Field Theory approach to Dark Matter production and its
validity, as well as an overview of the formalism of Simplified
Dark Matter models. Despite overwhelming astrophysical evidence for
Dark Matter and numerous experimental efforts to detect it, the
nature of Dark Matter still remains a mystery and has become one of
the hottest research topics in fundamental physics. Two searches
for Dark Matter are presented, performed on data collected with the
ATLAS experiment. They analyze missing-energy final states with a
jet or with top quarks. The analyses are explained in detail, and
the outcomes and their interpretations are discussed, also in view
of the precedent analysis of theoretical approaches. Given its
depth of coverage, the book represents an excellent reference guide
for all physicists interested in understanding the theoretical and
experimental considerations relevant to Dark Matter searches at the
LHC.
