We explore the sensitivity of the parity-violating electron scattering (PVES) asymmetry in both elastic and deep-inelastic scattering to the properties of a dark photon. Given advances in experimental capabilities in recent years, there are interesting regions of parameter space where PVES offers the chance to discover new physics in the near future. There are also cases where the existence of a dark photon could significantly alter our understanding of the structure of atomic nuclei and neutron stars as well as parton distribution functions.

  1. Relative enhancement of low-mass vector-boson exchange in higher waves matrix elements: parity non-conservation in hydrogen

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    A light Z' boson can mix hydrogen's 3p and 3d states with no Standard Model Z background, offering a potentially clean atomic probe of new physics.

  2. Parity Nonconservation in Hydrogen Induced by Low-Mass Vector-Boson Exchange

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The ratio of low-mass Z' to SM Z contributions to PNC in hydrogen and deuterium is computed for arbitrary Z' mass, showing faster-than-1/Z² growth at low Z for both nuclear-spin-independent and dependent cases.

  3. WIMP Dark Matter within the dark photon portal

    hep-ph 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Derives lower limits on dark photon parameters from thermal relic density for Dirac fermion and complex scalar WIMPs and compares resulting spin-independent cross sections to direct detection upper bounds.
