Physics and Astronomy Colloquium - Devin Walker, Stanford University

Title: "The Quest to Understand the Nature of Dark Matter"

Friday, May 15, 2015
3:30pm – 4:30pm
Wilder 104
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Lectures & Seminars

Abstract: I review the current status of and discuss the future prospects for accelerator, direct and indirect searches for dark matter.  I describe how each search impacts our understanding of various candidate theories as we look to the future.  Finally, I briefly emphasize how new (theoretical) “self-consistency” conditions on thermal dark matter can help to exclude candidate theories as we look toward the future.
