Astroparticle Physics at Colliders — •Manuel Drees — Physikalisches Inst. d. Univ. Bonn, Nussallee 12, 53115 Bonn

To date no clear deviation from the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has been found in traditional, accelerator-based, particle physics experiments. On the other hand, there are several cosmological observations that cannot be explained within the SM. These imply the existence of Dark Energy and Dark Matter, the baryon asymmetry of the universe, and the occurrence of a very early inflationary phase. Most of these observations can be explained in theoretically well motivated extensions of the SM. In this talk I will discuss to what extent experiments at future colliders will be able to decide which, if any, of these explanations are correct, and how these experiments can help to improve our understanding of the (early) Universe.
