NO LESS: Novel Opportunities for Light Exotic Searches at the SPS
Babette Döbrich, Jan Jerhot, Karim Massri +2
A powerful way to test models with feebly interacting particles in the MeV to GeV mass range is through proton beam-dump experiments. In this paper, we compare the current sensitiv…
Dark sector searches with high-intensity positron beams in the CERN North Area
F. Arias-Aragón, L. Darmé, R. Gargiulo +6
Dark sector models present a rich phenomenology that requires high-intensity beams and precision detectors for thorough exploration. The NA62 experiment has already published sever…
Search for a new 17 MeV resonance via annihilation with the PADME Experiment
F. Bossi, R. De Sangro, C. Di Giulio +24
The PADME Experiment at the Frascati DANE LINAC has searched for a hypothetical particle with mass around 17 MeV, commonly referred to as the X17, using a positron beam inciden…
Searches for hidden sectors using decays
NA62 Collaboration
Results from the study of the rare decays , and at the NA62 experiment at CERN are interpreted…
Search for hadronic decays of feebly-interacting particles at NA62
NA62 Collaboration
The NA62 experiment at CERN has the capability to collect data in a beam-dump mode, where 400 GeV protons are dumped on an absorber. In this configuration, New Physics particles, i…
Blind unblinding procedure for the PADME X17 data sample
Susanna Bertelli, Fabio Bossi, Riccardo De Sangro +29
The PADME experiment at the Frascati DANE LINAC has performed a search for the hypothetical X17 particle, with a mass of around 17 MeV, by scanning the energy of a positron bea…
