Popis: | Massive photon-like particles are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model. They have interactions similar to the photon, are vector bosons, and can be produced together with photons. The PADME experiment proposes a search for the dark photon ($A'$) in the $e^+e^- \to \gamma A'$ process in a positron-on-target experiment, exploiting the positron beam of the DA$\Phi$NE linac at the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, INFN. In one year of running a sensitivity in the relative interaction strength down to $10^{-6}$ is achievable, in the mass region from 2.5 MeV $ Comment: to be published in the DHF2014 proceedings EPJ Web of Conferences |
