Improved limits on a new in scenarios with the NA64 experiment at CERN

The NA64 Collaboration, Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov +53

Extensions of the Standard Model featuring an additional gauge symmetry provide a compelling framework linking the origin of neutrino masses to possible dark matter ca…

Searching for Light Dark Matter and Dark Sectors with the NA64 experiment at the CERN SPS

Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov, M. A. Ayala Torres +49

Since its approval in 2016, NA64 has pioneered light dark matter (LDM) searches with electron, positron, muon, and hadron beams. The experiment has successfully met its primary obj…

High efficiency veto hadron calorimeter in the NA64 experiment at CERN

Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov, M. A. Ayala Torres +53

NA64 is a fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS designed to search for Light particle Dark Matter (LDM) candidates with masses in the sub-GeV range. During the 2016-2022 runs, th…

Proof of principle for a light dark matter search with low-energy positron beams at NA64

Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov, M. A. Ayala Torres +54

Thermal light dark matter (LDM) with particle masses in the 1 MeV - 1 GeV range could successfully explain the observed dark matter abundance as a relic from the primordial Univers…

Shedding light on Dark Sectors with high-energy muons at the NA64 experiment at the CERN SPS

Yu. M. Andreev, D. Banerjee, B. Banto Oberhauser +54

A search for Dark Sectors is performed using the unique M2 beam line at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. New particles () could be produced in the bremsstrahlung-like reaction…

50 GeV in, nothing out: a sensitive probe of invisible and decays with NA64h

Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov, M. A. Ayala Torres +54

We present the first results from a proof-of-concept search for dark sectors via invisible decays of pseudoscalar and mesons in the NA64h experiment at the CERN SPS. Our n…

First constraints on the explanation of the muon anomaly from NA64- at CERN

Yu. M. Andreev, A. Antonov, D. Banerjee +58

The inclusion of an additional gauge symmetry would release the tension between the measured and the predicted value of the anomalous muon magnetic moment: this pa…

Exploration of the Muon and Light Dark Matter explanations in NA64 with the CERN SPS high energy muon beam

Yu. M. Andreev, D. Banerjee, B. Banto Oberhauser +54

We report on a search for a new () vector boson performed at the NA64 experiment employing a high energy muon beam and a missing energy-momentum technique. Muons from…
