SUMMARY:Dark Matter in Dilepton Production\, Theory Seminar (High Ener
 gy/Cosmology)\, Nirmal Raj\, University of Oregon
DESCRIPTION: At the LHC a standard search channel for new physics is t
 he production of a pair of leptons. New resonances or contact operator
 s can be gleaned from peaks or broad deviations respectively in the in
 variant mass distribution (mll) of this channel. I'll demonstrate in t
 his talk how hidden sectors can show up in dileptonic events through r
 adiative corrections to the Standard Model process\, giving rise to un
 ique features in mll\, as well as in leptonic angular distributions. O
 ne compelling possibility that can be probed is that of dark matter wi
 th scalar messengers coupling it to the quarks and leptons. I will pre
 sent constraints from dilepton spectrum measurements at the LHC and da
 rk matter experiments\, and make predictions for the bounds from the h
 igh luminosity 14 TeV LHC as well as a 100 TeV collider.
