Abstract

In this short contribution I want to discuss one particular candidate for the Dark Matter (DM) in the Universe, viz., the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). I discuss, very briefly, the motivation for Supersymmetry as well as the LSP as DM candidate. Then I summarise the current accelerator bounds on its mass and couplings and end by pointing out the implications of these limits for the experiments which search ‘directly’ for the DM.
