Description
Dark matter that is extremely weakly coupled to the standard model can be directly produced in the early universe via the freeze-in mechanism. After describing this mechanism, I will present some specific models where freeze-in can be realised and discuss the implications for dark matter searches in astrophysics and at the LHC.
