Abstract

A description of the Higgs portal-vector dark matter interpretation of the spin-independent dark-matter nucleon elastic scattering cross section using the invisible Higgs decay width measured at the LHC is presented. The usage of Effective Field Theory approach and ultraviolet complete models is discussed. The inclusion of these theoretical scenarios in LHC public results in comparison with direct detection results is proposed. Dark matter in the sub-GeV mass range is additionally discussed.
