This thesis reports on the search for dark matter in data taken
with the ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The
identification of dark matter and the determination of its
properties are among the highest priorities in elementary particle
physics and cosmology. The most likely candidate, a weakly
interacting massive particle, could be produced in the high energy
proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The analysis presented here is
unique in looking for dark matter produced together with a Higgs
boson that decays into its dominant decay mode, a pair of b quarks.
If dark matter were seen in this mode, we would learn directly
about the production mechanism because of the presence of the Higgs
boson. This thesis develops the search technique and presents the
most stringent production limit to date.
