Description
The anomaly reported recently by CDF can be well fit by a massive Z' coupling
primarily to baryons. The U(1) gauge group associated with such a Z' is anomalous in
the Standard Model; and so additional particle content is required. In this talk, I
discuss two possible UV theories which include a leptophobic Z', and demonstrate that
these models generically contain a viable dark matter candidate that have a direct
detection cross-sections compatible with the DAMA/Libra and CoGeNT signals. It is
therefore possible that collider experiments can directly probe dark forces that
connect the Standard Model and the dark sector.
