"Supersymmetric Dark Matter
and the Linear Collider: Physics Potential and Detector Requirements"
The next generations of particle colliders are expected to
provide a major breakthrough in the understanding of the nature of dark
matter, matching particle physics measurements to the cosmological
data. The linear collider, with its ability to perform accurate
measurements of masses, quantum numbers and couplings of new particles,
should provide the accuracy necessary to perform definite tests. I
review the main scenarios in Supersymmetry compatible with Cosmology
data and their phenomenology at the linear collider. These scenarios
also motivate a significant R&D activity on detectors to cope
with the requirements of this physics programme.
