Searches for dark matter and new physics with GAMBIT

Abstract

I will give an introduction to GAMBIT, the Global and Modular Beyond-the-Standard Inference Tool, focusing on the Beyond-the-Standard-Model science programme currently being pursued with it. This includes indirect searches for dark matter with gamma-rays and neutrinos, direct searches with a range of underground experiments, cosmological constraints, associated searches for new particles at the LHC and in flavour experiments, and precision tests of the Standard Model. I will present the latest combined constraints on a range of different models for new physics, ranging from Higgs-portal dark matter to axions and supersymmetry, as well as previewing a few GAMBIT extensions and results for other models on the near horizon.
