Beam-Dump Ceiling and Its Experimental Implication: The Case of a Portable Experiment
Doojin Kim, Jaehoon Yu, Jong-Chul Park +1
We generalize the nature of the so-called beam-dump ``ceiling'' beyond which the improvement on the sensitivity reach in the search for fast-decaying mediators dramatically slows d…
DAMSA Experiment Conceptual Design White Paper
Prithak Bhattarai, Andrew Brandt, Alan Bross +41
DAMSA (DArk Messenger Searches at an Accelerator) is a novel short-baseline accelerator experiment aimed at probing short-lived physics processes, including searches for evidence o…
Dark Matter Internal Pair Production -- A Novel Direct Detection Mechanism
Bhaskar Dutta, Aparajitha Karthikeyan, Hyunyong Kim +1
We propose a novel mechanism, dark matter internal pair production (DIPP), to detect dark matter candidates at beam dump facilities. When energetic dark matter scatters in a materi…
New Physics at Neutron Beam Dump
P. S. Bhupal Dev, Bhaskar Dutta, Tao Han +3
We find a new utility of neutrons, usually treated as an experimental nuisance causing unwanted background, in probing new physics signals. They can either be radiated from neutron…
