Description
Different approaches to finding evidence for dark matter at the
LHC are presented. These include searches for events with large missing
transverse momentum and a single jet, photon or W/Z boson. Searches for hidden
sectors in events with long-lived particles resulting in displaced hadronic vertices
or lepton-jet signatures are also reported. Finally, studies sensitive to the presence
of extra spatial dimensions are described, as for example classical and quantum
black holes and other non-resonant phenomena. Results from sqrt(s) = 8 TeV
data taking are presented.
