abstract
In this paper, the production of Axion-Like Particles (ALPs) at $B$-factories via the process $e^+e^- \to \gamma a$ is revisited. To this purpose, the relevant cross-section is computed via an effective Lagrangian with simultaneous ALP couplings to $b$-quarks and photons. The interplay between resonant and non-resonant contributions is shown to be relevant for experiments operating at $\sqrt{s}=m_{\Upsilon(nS)}$, with $n=1,2,3$, while the non-resonant one dominates at $\Upsilon(4S)$. These effects imply that the experimental searches performed at different quarkonia resonances are sensitive to complementary combinations of ALP couplings. To illustrate these results, constraints from existing BaBar and Belle data on ALPs decaying into invisible final states are derived, and the prospects for the Belle-II experiment are discussed.

The KSVZ Atlas: A Unified SMEFT-ALP Framework
A matching framework from arbitrary KSVZ UV completions to SMEFT and ALP EFT yields robust operator bounds from global fits that often dominate direct ALP searches except when mass mixing occurs.

Could an axion-like particle be hidden in $\eta_c\to\gamma\gamma$?
The authors propose that an axion-like particle with mass about 2.98 GeV and width about 31 MeV may explain the discrepancy in eta_c to gamma gamma measurements and show it is not yet excluded.
