  "abstract": "<p>A search for Dark Matter produced in association with a single top quark with the CMS experiment was performed.<br>\nTwo analysis channels are considered, depending on the decay of the top quark.&nbsp;<br>\nThe leptonic analysis channels the transverse mass as a kinematic variable to distinguish the signal from the Standard Model backgrounds.&nbsp;<br>\nThe hadronic analysis channel&nbsp;utilizes the hadronic recoil and a sophisticated statistical model in which the main backgrounds are determined in a data-driven way via transfer factors.<br>\nNo significant deviations from the Standard Model expectations&nbsp;were observed.<br>\nConsequently, exclusion limits on parameters of the theoretical Dark Matter model were set.&nbsp;</p>",
