Dark photons are hypothetical massive vector particles that could mix with ordinary photons. The simplest theoretical model is fully characterised by only two parameters: the mass of dark photon m$_{\gamma^{\mathrm{D}}}$ and its mixing parameter photon, $\varepsilon$. sensitivity SHiP detector reviewed for in range between 0.002 10 GeV. Different production mechanisms simulated, decaying to pairs visible fermions, including both leptons quarks. Exclusion contours presented compared those...
A bstract Dark matter is a well-established theoretical addition to the Standard Model supported by many observations in modern astrophysics and cosmology. In this context, existence of weakly interacting massive particles represents an appealing solution observed thermal relic Universe. Indeed, large experimental campaign ongoing for detection such sub-GeV mass range. Adopting benchmark scenario light dark produced decay photon, with α D = 0 . 1 m ′ 3 χ , we study potential SHiP experiment...
Abstract The SHiP experiment is proposed to search for very weakly interacting particles beyond the Standard Model which are produced in a 400 GeV/c proton beam dump at CERN SPS.

Dark photons are hypothetical massive vector particles that could mix with ordinary photons. The simplest theoretical model is fully characterised by only two parameters: the mass of dark photon m$_{γ^{\mathrm{D}}}$ and its mixing parameter photon, $\varepsilon$. sensitivity SHiP detector reviewed for in range between 0.002 10 GeV. Different production mechanisms simulated, decaying to pairs visible fermions, including both leptons quarks. Exclusion contours presented compared those past...
