The SND@LHC neutron shielding
LHC Collaboration
The design and construction of a neutron shielding for the SND@LHC detector, which utilizes a combination of plexiglass and borated polyethylene, is presented. FLUKA simulations we…
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…
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…
Input from the SND@LHC collaboration to the 2026 Update to the European Strategy for Particle Physics
LHC collaboration
By observing collider neutrino interactions of different flavours, the SND@LHC and Faser experiments have shown that the LHC can make interesting contributions to neutrino physics.…
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…
