Various theoretical models have been proposed to describe the
nature of dark matter, ranging from exotic particles such as
weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) and axions to
primordial black holes and alternative theories of gravity.
Experimental efforts to detect dark matter particles span a wide
range of approaches, including direct detection experiments,
indirect detection through cosmic-ray observations, and collider
experiments at particle accelerators.
Direct detection experiments, such as the Cryogenic Dark
Matter Search (CDMS) and the XENON collaboration, employ
sensitive detectors located deep underground to search for rare
interactions between dark matter particles and atomic nuclei.
Indirect detection experiments, on the other hand, seek to detect
the secondary particles produced by dark matter annihilation or
decay, such as gamma rays, neutrinos, and cosmic rays, using
space-based telescopes and ground-based observatories.
Furthermore, high-energy particle physics experiments, such as
the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, aim to probe the
properties of dark matter particles by colliding protons at
energies exceeding those present in the early universe. These
experiments explore the parameter space of theoretical models
and provide crucial insights into the fundamental nature of dark
matter.
