Can we detect the dark matter (DM) particle at colliders?
If the models are right, then the DM particle
will be copiously produced at colliders.

The image in Fig. 1 is another clear evidence of the DM seen
in a collision of two huge galaxy clusters
by Chandra X and gravitational weak lensing.
If the DM is a paricle, we can construct
models of particle physics that is cosmologically consistent (Fig. 2).
Prof. Kamon is a member of the CDF and CMS collaborations.
His primary thrust is to test particle physics models
that open the possibility of an ultimate unification of the fundamental forces.
Supersymmetry (SUSY) is one of the leading candidates.
He has pioneered the SUSY searches
in its final states involving electrons and muons
at the Tevatron.
Now his focus is shifted to
using the third generation particles (e.g., tau lepton) to test
the models which are cosmologically allowed
at the Tevatron, the LHC, and an ILC (Fig.3).
