Recent Results from BABAR: Dark Matter, Axion-like Particles and Heavy Neutral Leptons, a contribution to the 2023 Electroweak session of the 57th Rencontres de Moriond

Sophie Middleton

Three independent searches for new physics using data collected at BABAR are presented. Firstly, two searches for dark matter and baryogenesis: $B^{0} \to Λ + ψ_{D}$ and $B^{…

Search for $B$ Mesogenesis at BABAR

BABAR Collaboration, J. P. Lees, V. Poireau +239

A new mechanism has been proposed to simultaneously explain the presence of dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. This scenario predicts exotic $B$ meson…

Experimental Searches For Heavy Neutral Leptons

Sophie Middleton

The highly successful Standard Model is not complete. It does not explain the baryonic asymmetry in the Universe, the existence of dark matter or the non-zero masses of the neutrin…

Mu2e-II: Muon to electron conversion with PIP-II

K. Byrum, S. Corrodi, Y. Oksuzian +104

An observation of Charged Lepton Flavor Violation (CLFV) would be unambiguous evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. The Mu2e and COMET experiments, under construction, ar…

Search for an Axion-Like Particle in B Meson Decays

The BABAR Collaboration

Axion-like particles (ALPs) are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model, and their masses can naturally be well below the electroweak scale. In the presence of couplings…

Study of the reactions $e^{+} e^{-} \to π^{+} π^{-} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0}$ and $π^{+} π^{-} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0} η$ at center-of-mass energies from threshold to 4.5 GeV using initial-state radiation

BaBar Collaboration

We study the processes $e^{+} e^{-} \to π^{+} π^{-} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0} γ$ and $e^{+} e^{-} \to π^{+} π^{-} π^{0} π^{0} π^{0} η γ$ in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data were collected with…
