We can use monojet (or monophoton) searches to place limits on the direct detection plane.

3 simple steps to finding DM
•Assume that an effective field theory is valid at the collider -- consider contact operators
•Find the collider limit on the scale Lambda by looking for an excess of events
•Translate the Lambda bound into a direct detection cross-section

•Takes multijet events and puts them into a di-“megajet” topology -- keep more events.
•Variables follow simple exponential distributions -- data-driven analysis.

Chiu-Tien Yu (UW-Madison/Fermilab) Pheno2012 May 8, 2012
Conclusion• Collider searches for DM give
complementary (and competitive) bounds to direct detection searches.
• Current monojet/monophoton analyses from the Tevatron and LHC give the best limits for light DM and for spin-dependent DM.
• Inclusive jet + MET searches such as Razor will provide even more discriminating power.
