A minimal electrophilic ALP portal for SIMP pion dark matter widens the allowed parameter space, making an ALP mass of order 10 MeV viable and consistent with the X17 anomaly.
Reactor neutrino data from CONUS+ and Dresden-II combined with COHERENT and IceCube data singles out a region of neutrino and nuclear couplings consistent with the X17 particle.
The complex e+e- invariant mass spectrum below 50 MeV is attributed to thermal annihilation and bound states of QED-deconfined and confined neutral q bar q quark matter.
The authors combine PADME positron annihilation data with nuclear transition results to report a refined mass for the hypothetical X17 boson of 16.88 ± 0.05 MeV.
Fitting independent quark couplings of the X17 boson to D, psi(2S), and phi decay data yields |ε_c| = 7.6×10^{-3}, |ε_s| = 2.4×10^{-3}, a huge |ε_u| in tension with ATOMKI, and a predicted range for the D^{*+} → D^{+} e⁺e⁻ rate.
A parameter space analysis of a leptophilic scalar mediator model for Majorana dark matter yields a viable sub-GeV region after applying relic density, cosmological, astrophysical, and laboratory constraints.
