Dark Matter and the LHC — •Frank Steffen — MPI for Physics, Munich, Germany

The question for the potential particle identity of dark matter is one of the most pressing ones in the natural sciences today. Extending the Standard Model with the Peccei-Quinn symmetry and/or supersymmetry, compelling dark matter candidates appear. For the axion, the neutralino, the gravitino, and the axino, I review primordial production mechanisms, cosmological and astrophysical constraints, experimental searches, and prospects for experimental identification at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and a future linear collider.
