Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Physics, 2015.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 145-162).The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 completed the particle content of the Standard Model, but brought into sharp relief two outstanding problems: why is the Higgs so light, and what is the identity of 80% of the matter content of the universe? Neither appears to have an answer within the Standard Model. This thesis attempts to address these problems with the introduction of new forces and gauge groups. I investigate a model where dark matter interacts through a new massive U(1) gauge boson which kinetically mixes with the photon, and show how this model can be tested...
