Abstract

Searches for decays of the Higgs boson to invisible particles simultaneously probe the standard model nature of the Higgs sector and the possible existence of DM particle candidates. The ATLAS and CMS Collaborations pursue an ambitious search program for such hypothetical decays in various analysis channels. Using the latest data sets from Run-2 of the CERN LHC (corresponding to approximately 140 fb$^{-1}$ per experiment), impressive progress has been made in constraining invisible decays of the Higgs boson. In this talk, I present the latest results, discuss their relative importance and summarize the prospects for the near future.
