A search for a new $Z'$ gauge boson associated with (un)broken B-L symmetry in the keV-GeV mass range is carried out for the first time using the missing-energy technique in the NA64 experiment at the CERN SPS. From the analysis of the data with 3.22e11 electrons on target collected during 2016-2021 runs no signal events were found. This allows to derive new constraints on the $Z'-e$ coupling strength, which for the mass range $0.3 < m_{Z'} < 100$ MeV are more stringent compared to those obtained from the neutrino-electron scattering data.

    hep-ex 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    NA64 sets improved upper limits on g_{B-L} for sub-GeV Z' using 9.4e11 electrons on target, exceeding prior neutrino-scattering bounds in the unbroken U(1)_{B-L} scenario.
