The members of the group work mainly in the theoretical analysis of the dark matter problem from particle physics and astrophysics viewpoints. They study the nature and structure of the dark matter in the Universe, and its possible detection on space-based detectors, atmospheric telescopes and underground laboratories. The analyses are carried out in the context of physics beyond the standard model, such as for example in supersymmetric theories. The study of the dark matter implications in colliders such as LHC is also contemplated. Several of the UAM & IFT members are also involved in the Fermi collaboration.

In addition to the MultiDark project, the UAM & IFT members belong currently to the following national and regional projects related to the dark matter research:

• Particles and Astroparticles in the Universe, FPA2015-65929P, 2016-18

• The MareNostrum Numerical Cosmology Project: A Virtual Laboratory to study the evolution of the Universe, AYA2009-13875-C03-02
•  
• Phenomenology of Fundamental Interactions: Fields, Strings and Cosmology, HEPHACOS S2009/ESP-1473, 2010-13
•  
• ASTROMADRID, PRICIT- S2009/ESP-146
