Description

We study novel collider signatures including the Higgs boson and dark matter. These signatures arise naturally in well-motivated models, where dark matter interacts with the Standard Model primarily via the Higgs boson.
We explore concrete examples with fermion or scalar dark matter vis-a-vis our proposed search and the existing dark sector studies at the LHC. We also comment on the implications for future colliders.
