Description

While the Higgs Bosons of the Standard Model or MSSM have so far eluded direct detection, BSM models should address the strong hints pointing towards particle dark matter around or below the TeV scale. Based on a model [0805.1379v2] and parton level simulations in O'Mega/Whizard [0909.5330v1], I argue that thermal CDM candidates in alternative warped EWSB scenarios potentially exhibit a quite different phenomenology at the LHC compared to respective candidates in the MSSM, including increased chances of an early discovery.
