Abstract
The search for Dark Energy (DE) at the LHC relies on the assumption of a non-zero interaction between the DE and the SM fields. Thereby, evidence for DE production can be found either in precision measurements sensitive to the production of virtual DE particles in loop processes or in the direct production of DE particles in pp collisions at the LHC.
