Presentation Outline What have we learnt so far? LHC, Direct and Indirect Detection Experiments, Planck Data Origin of DM Thermal, Non-thermal, Non-standard cosmology Concluding Insights 3
LHC Most models predict: 1-3 TeV (colored particle masses) So far: No colored particle up to 1.6 TeV Non-colored SUSY particles: 100 GeV to 1-2 TeV (Major role in the DM content of the Universe) Weak LHC bound for non-colored particles hole in searches! Trouble in Models with very tight correlation between colored and non-colored particles, e.g., minimal SUGRA/CMSSM LHC + Direct Detection + Indirect Detection+Planck quite constraining (model dependent) 4
Direct Detection Experiments Status of New physics/susy in the direct detection experiments: LUX: No signal for Low or High DM mass Astrophysical and nuclear matrix element uncertainties No signal: some particle physics models are ruled out Neutrino floor: A serious concern for the DM experiments Neutrinos arising from astrophysical Sources: Sun, Atmosphere 5

Status of Thermal DM Thermal equilibrium above T f is an assumption. History of the Universe between the BBN and inflation is unknown Non-standard thermal history at is generic in some explicit UV completions of the SM. Acharya, Kumar, Bobkov, Kane, Shao 08 Acharya, Kane, Watson, Kumar 09 Allahverdi, Cicoli, Dutta, Sinha, 13 DM content can be different in non-standard thermal histories. Barrow 82, Kamionkowski, Turner 90 DM will be a strong probe of the thermal history after it is discovered and a model is established.

Abundance of Decay products (Y φ ) is small enough, i.e., annihilation is not important any more Freeze-in. 17
