Dark matter particles production at the LHC accelerator

One of the greatests puzzles of science today is the nature of the dark matter. Misterious dark matter particles account for 1/4 of the Universe density. It is highly probable, that the LHC accelarator, which will begin to operate in 2007, will become a factory of such particles, and the CMS experiment, working at the LHC, will answer the question about their nature.

Among many possible scenarios there are such, in which theses particles come from cascade decays of massive, charged, weakly interacting, long-lived particles. The goal of the thesis will be evaluation of the observability of these scenarios and definition of measurable parameters of the models.
