abstract

A search for sub-GeV dark matter production mediated by a new vector boson $A'$, called dark photon, is performed by the NA64 experiment in missing energy events from 100 GeV electron interactions in an active beam dump at the CERN SPS. From the analysis of the data collected in the years 2016, 2017, and 2018 with $2.84\times10^{11}$ electrons on target no evidence of such a process has been found. The most stringent constraints on the $A'$ mixing strength with photons and the parameter space for the scalar and fermionic dark matter in the mass range $\lesssim 0.2$ GeV are derived, thus demonstrating the power of the active beam dump approach for the dark matter search.

  1. Dark sector radiation corrections to invisible dark photon production: beyond fixed order

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Sudakov resummation of dark-sector radiation converts the divergent M_X^2 distribution in invisible dark photon production into an integrable line shape and shifts recast BaBar limits by up to about 14%.

  2. Proof of principle for a light dark matter search with low-energy positron beams at NA64

    hep-ex 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A 70 GeV positron-beam missing-energy search at NA64 found zero signal events and set new dark photon limits, demonstrating the feasibility of a future low-energy positron program.

  3. Probing Light Dark Particles in Neutrino Scattering Experiments

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A dark fermion produced in neutrino scattering could be probed at DUNE's near detector up to cutoff scales near 1 TeV, beyond CHARM II and LEP, while current COHERENT/CONUS+ limits stay below LHC bounds.

  4. Relaxing constraints on a broad dark photon

    hep-ph 2025-05 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    The paper argues that adding decays to dark matter broadens the dark photon and could relax the CMS exclusion bound on its mixing parameter by one to two orders of magnitude.

  5. Phases of Dark Matter from Inverse Decays

    hep-ph 2025-04 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Dark matter produced by the freeze-out of inverse decays has a full phase structure, with couplings as small as m_chi over the Planck mass, that is robust to kinetic decoupling and testable through dark photon searches.

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In U(1) extensions with a light Z', the Higgs decay h->Z'Z' strengthens bounds from ZZ* signal strength measurements beyond the total signal strength alone.
