Description
Many dark matter models predict monojet signatures at colliders. However, if the dark sector also contains long-lived particles, less conventional signatures can arise. In this talk I will discuss this possibility by considering two different models: the "pseudo-Dirac model", which predicts displaced vertices, and the "chromo-electric dipole model", which is characterized by composite states referred to as R-hadrons, analagous to those in supersymmetry. In both cases, these unusual signatures can be complementary, or even competitive, with standard searches.
