Abstract: To uncover the dark matter, to connect what is astrophysically observed to what will be seen as new particles produced in the LHC, we need new measurements. One example of a crucial observation is the measurement of a gamma ray dark matter annihilation signal in the sky with the next generation gamma-ray experiments like GLAST. Another example is the measurement of the antiproton and positron spectrum by the next generation cosmic-ray experiments like PAMELA and AMS. We will review the achievable limits of this indirect search, taking into accounts the LEP results and we will compare this method with future experiments at LHC.
