In the Hidden Valley/Dark Sector scenario, which has various theoretical motivations, a hidden sector couples to the Standard Model at TeV scales or below. A wide variety of exotic phenomena may result, posing serious experimental and/or theoretical challenges. The main theoretical hurdle is that hidden sectors may host phenomena that we cannot currently calculate or simulate, thereby making predictions difficult or impossible. I'll discuss a couple of projects at the frontiers of this subject.
