Title: The Coannihilation Codex
Host: Ennio Salvioni
Room: 432
Abstract: We present a classification of simplified models of coannihilating dark matter. Assuming tree-level and renormalizable interactions we construct all possible simplified models (containing dark matter, its coannihilation partner and possibly a mediator) which respect gauge and Lorentz invariance. We go on to identify the possible LHC signatures associated with these models and identify new search strategies. Finally we apply these new searches to a leptoquark mediated dark matter model.
