We study the consequences of this hypothetical scenario for Dark Matter (DM), in the framework of the constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (cMSSM). We evaluate the surviving regions of the cMSSM parameter space after null searches at the LHC, using several different LHC configurations, and study the consequences for DM searches with ton-scale direct detectors and the IceCube neutrino telescope. We demonstrate that ton-scale direct detection experiments will be able to conclusively probe the cMSSM parameter space that would survive null searches at the LHC with 100 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity at 14TeV. We also demonstrate that IceCube (80 strings plus DeepCore) will be able to probe as much as similar or equal to 17{\%} of the currently favoured parameter space after 5 years of observation.", optnote="WOS:000300403300004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=937), last updated on Thu, 17 May 2012 17:59:53 +0000", issn="1475-7516", doi="10.1088/1475-7516/2012/01/004", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1107.5813", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2012/01/004", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1107.5813", language="English" }
