Abstract
We discuss the constraints on Dark Matter coming from the LHC Higgs data and WMAP relic density measurements for the Inert Doublet Model, which is one of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model providing a Dark Matter candidate. We found that combining the diphoton rate R γγ and the Ω DM h 2 data one can set strong limits on the parameter space of the Inert Doublet Model, stronger or comparable to the constraints provided by the XENON100 experiment for low and medium Dark Matter mass.
