Abstract
We discuss a list of possible light gauge boson interpretations for the long-standing experimental anomaly in and also recent anomalous excess in events at the J-PARC KOTO experiment. We consider two models: ) gauge boson with heavy vector-like quarks and ) gauge boson in the presence of right-handed neutrinos. When the light gauge boson has mass close to the neutral pion in order to satisfy the Grossman-Nir bound, the models successfully explain the anomalies simultaneously while satisfying all known experimental constraints. We extensively provide the future prospect of suggested models.
