Signals of Particle Dark Matter

Year: 2012

Type: dissertation

Abstract: This thesis explores methods of detecting dark matter particles, with some emphasis on several dark matter models of current interest. Detection in this context means observation of an experimental signature correlated with dark matter interactions with Standard Model particles. This includes recoils of nuclei or electrons from dark matter scattering events, and direct or indirect observation of particles produced by dark matter annihilation.
