We review several current aspects of dark matter theory and experiment. We overview the present experimental status, which includes current bounds and recent claims and hints of a possible signal in a wide range of experiments: direct detection in underground laboratories, gamma-ray, cosmic ray, x-ray, neutrino telescopes, and the LHC. We briefly review several possible particle candidates for a weakly interactive massive particle (WIMP) and dark matter that have recently been considered in the literature. We pay particular attention to the lightest neutralino of supersymmetry as it remains the best motivated candidate for dark matter and also shows excellent detection prospects. Finally we briefly review some alternative scenarios that can considerably alter properties and prospects for the detection of dark matter obtained within the standard thermal WIMP paradigm.
我们回顾了暗物质理论和实验的几个当前方面。我们概述了目前的实验现状，包括当前的限制以及最近在广泛的实验中声称和暗示可能存在的信号：地下实验室的直接探测、伽马射线、宇宙射线、X 射线、中微子望远镜和 LHC。我们简要回顾了最近文献中考虑过的几种弱相互作用重粒子（WIMP）和暗物质的可能候选粒子。我们特别关注超对称的最轻中性微子，因为它仍然是暗物质的最佳候选者，并且也显示出极好的探测前景。最后，我们简要回顾了一些替代方案，这些方案可以极大地改变标准热 WIMP 范式中获得的暗物质的性质和探测前景。
