Review on Higgs Hidden–Dark Sector Physics at High-Energy Colliders

The presence of a hidden or dark sector of phenomena that relates either weakly or in a particular way to Standard Model (SM) fields has theoretical as well as experimental support. Many extensions of SM use hidden or dark sector states to propose a specific candidate for dark matter (DM) in the uni...

description The presence of a hidden or dark sector of phenomena that relates either weakly or in a particular way to Standard Model (SM) fields has theoretical as well as experimental support. Many extensions of SM use hidden or dark sector states to propose a specific candidate for dark matter (DM) in the universe or to explain astrophysical findings. If such a family of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) particles and interactions exists, it is possible that they will be discovered experimentally at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC, <inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msqrt><mi>s</mi></msqrt><mo>≅</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> 14 TeV) and future High Energy Colliders. The primary emphasis is on a few examples of searches undertaken at the LHC that are relevant to Higgs Hidden–Dark Sector Physics. These studies’ existing constraints and prospects are also reported.
