A new exclusion limit for the electromagnetic production of a light U(1) gauge boson {\gamma}' decaying to e^+e^- was determined by the A1 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron. Such light gauge bosons appear in several extensions of the standard model and are also discussed as candidates for the interaction of dark matter with standard model matter. In electron scattering from a heavy nucleus, the existing limits for a narrow state coupling to e^+e^- were reduced by nearly an order of magnitude in the range of the lepton pair mass of 210 MeV/c^2 < m_e^+e^- < 300 MeV/c^2. This experiment demonstrates the potential of high current and high resolution fixed target experiments for the search for physics beyond the standard model.

  1. Constraining the heavy leptophilic neutral gauge bosons through the $Z\to\ell^+\ell^-$, $W^\pm\to\ell^\pm\nu_\ell$, and $h\to\ell^+\ell^-$ decays

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    One-loop corrections to W/Z/h leptonic widths exclude heavy leptophilic Z' regions (M ≳ O(1) TeV, g' ≳ 0.4) beyond LEP-2 and neutrino-trident limits.

  2. The High-Energy Frontier of the Intensity Frontier: Closing the Dark Photon, Inelastic Dark Matter, and Muon g-2 Windows

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Reanalysis of CHARM and NuCal beam-dump data nearly excludes inelastic dark matter as a full-abundance thermal relic in the MeV to GeV range for the benchmark splittings considered, and yields updated dark photon constraints.

  3. Search for light long-lived neutral particles produced in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV and decaying into collimated leptons or light hadrons with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2019-09 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    No evidence for displaced dark-photon jets is found, and 95% confidence limits exclude cross sections above about 4 pb for H to two dark photons with decay lengths from 1.5 mm to 307 mm.
