Description
Summary:We investigate a scenario that the top quark is the only window to the dark matter particle. We use the effective Lagrangian approach to write down the interaction between the top quark and the dark matter particle. Requiring the dark matter satisfying the relic density we obtain the size of the effective interaction. We show that the scenario can be made consistent with the direct and indirect detection experiments by adjusting the size of the effective coupling. Finally, we calculate the production cross section for $ t\bar{t} + \chi \bar{\chi } $at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which will give rise to an interesting signature of a top-pair plus large missing energy.
