Abstract: | This talk discusses the collider phenomenolgy of a nonthermal dark matter model with a 1-GeV dark matter candidate. Together with additional colored states, the dark matter also explains baryongensis. Since the light dark matter is not parity-protected, it can be singly produced at the LHC. This leads to large missing energy associated with an energetic jet whose transverse momentum distribution is featured by a Jacobian-like shape. Currently available LHC data from the monojet, dijet, paired dijet and 2 jets + missing energy channels can offer significant bounds on this model. | |
