Abstract. There is a strong and growing interplay between particle

physics and cosmology. In this talk, I discuss some aspects of this interplay

concerning dark matter candidates put forth by theories beyond

the standard model. In explaining the requirements for collider

tests of such dark matter candidates, I focus in particular on the

case of the lightest neutralino in the MSSM.

Keywords. Dark matter; beyond the Standard Model; supersymmetry.
