Dark matter represents one of the main mysteries in our current understanding of the universe and its nature is completely unknown. Dark matter could be made of particles and could be generated in the Large Hadron Collider collisions. This project focuses on models of a QCD-like dark sector which would generate unconventional signatures in LHC collisions. In some cases, the dark particles can decay as soon as they are produced in the collisions in a mixture of lighter dark (invisible) particles and SM particles generating semi-visible jets.

暗物质是我们目前对宇宙理解的主要谜团之一，其本质是完全未知的。暗物质可以由粒子组成，可以在大型强子对撞机的碰撞中产生。该项目重点研究类似 QCD 的暗区模型，该模型会在大型强子对撞机碰撞中产生非常规特征。在某些情况下，暗粒子一旦在较亮的暗（不可见）粒子和产生半可见射流的 SM 粒子的混合物中碰撞产生，就会衰变。
