Description

A search for dark matter pair production in association with a Z' boson in
pp colisions, at 13 TeV, using 36.1fb-1 data, recoreded with the ATLAS
detector is presented. Events are characterised by large missing transverse
momentum and a hadronically decaying vector boson reconstructed as either a
pair of small-radius jets, or as a single large-radius jet with substructure.
Results are interpreted in terms of simplified models which describe the
interaction of dark matter and standard model particles.
