The PADME experiment at Laboratori Nationali di Frascati is designed to study possible dark matter explanations relying on the presence of a light particle that acts as mediator between visible and hidden sectors. Three data-taking runs have resulted in collection more than \(10^{13}\) positrons-on-target. experimental setup was initially search for associate photon production later modified resonant new \(X17\) particle, originally proposed by ATOMKI Institute. different runs, data taking, background studies are presented, well first physics results prospects next run PADME.
