abstract
We study the phenomenology of a sub-GeV $L_\mu-L_\tau$ gauge boson. We find discrepancies with existing literature in sensitivity projections for the upcoming SHiP experiment and in the treatment of supernovae cooling constraints. We present a quantitative analysis of different production modes in beam dumps and compare our results to previous work. In the context of supernovae, we re-evaluate the standard supernova cooling bounds from SN1987A and analyze additional supernova-based probes: diffusive cooling, constraints from the existence of low-energy supernovae, and the absence of a high-energy neutrino signal from SN1987A.

Neutron stars yield tighter bounds on muonic scalar and vector fifth forces (g_φμ ≲ 10^{-12}, g_Vμ ≲ 3×10^{-13} for m_X ≲ 100 keV) than SN 1987A, plus hydrostatic constraints for long-range cases.
Freeze-in at low reheating temperatures allows MeV-scale dark matter in vector portal models to be probed by future direct detection experiments in nuclear recoils for 50-500 MeV masses and via enhanced solar neutrino coherent scattering.
A 22 MeV Dirac dark matter particle in a U(1)_{Lμ-Lτ} model annihilates to muon and tau neutrinos that oscillate to explain the SK excess while matching thermal relic abundance.
Derives bremsstrahlung production rates and T-dependent energy-loss scalings for leptophilic bosons in NS cores to enable coupling constraints from cooling data.
