Exploring Leptophilic Dark Matter with NA64-μ
read the original abstract
We investigate the prospects for detecting light leptophilic dark sectors with a missing-momentum experiment at NA64 running in muon mode. In particular, we consider models in which dark matter connects to the visible sector through a lepton- or muon-specific scalar mediator. These scalars can also account for the $\sim 3.5\sigma$ discrepancy between the measured and predicted values of $(g-2)_{\mu}$ . We emphasize the complementarity between NA64-$\mu$ and other terrestrial and astrophysical probes.

Muon Beam Dump Experiments explicate five-dimensional nature of $U(1)_{L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}}$
Muon beam dump experiments can probe five-dimensional U(1)_{Lμ-Lτ} models via enhanced Kaluza-Klein signals, with decay channels enabling mass reconstruction to indicate extra dimensions.
