The simplest dark sector model The simplest hidden sector model just introduces one extra U(1) gauge symmetry and a corresponding gauge boson: the “dark photon" or U boson. Two type of interactions with SM particles should be considered As in QED, this will generate new interactions of the type: e. A’ e+ Not all the SM particles need to be charged under this new symmetry In the most general case qf is different in between leptons and quarks and can even be 0 for quarks. (P. Fayet, Phys. Lett. B 675, 267 (2009). ) The coupling constant and the charges can be generated effectively through the kinetic mixing between the QED and the new U(1) gauge bosons g A’ In this case qf is just proportional to electric charge and it is equal for both quarks and leptons. M. Raggi and P. Valente Perugia 09/03/15
A’ production and decays U boson can be produced in e+ collision on target by: Bremsstrahlung: e+N →e+NA’ Annihilation : e+e-→ g. A’ Meson decays If no dark matter candidate lighter than the A’ boson exist: A’→e+e-, m+m-, p+p- the so called “Visible” decays For MA’<210 Me. V A’ only decay to e+e- BR(e+e-)=1 If any dark matter c with 2 Mc<MA’ exist A’ will dominantly decay into pure dark matter and BR(l+l-) becomes small suppressed by e 2 A'→cc ~ 1 so called “Invisible” decays” M.

Positron excess in cosmic rays Positron excess: PAMELA, FERMI, AMS 02 No significant excess in antiprotons Consistent with pure secondary production Leptofilic low mass dark matter annihilation? M. Raggi and P. Valente Perugia 09/03/15
Hints for dark matter annihilation? c A’ е+ е- е. A’ c е+ g' е+ A', . . е- If Dark Matter is the explanation to the positron excess, then the mediator should be light ( < 2*Mproton) Coupling constant to DM could be arbitrary (even О(1)) The Lagrangian term can arise through Fermions being charged (mili) under this new gauge symmetry (qf � 0 for some flavors) Kinetic mixing between ordinary photon and DM one Using simply an effective description: M.

Observation of 3. 5 Ke. V X-ray line Recently a 3. 55 Ke. V X-ray line (~3 s) has been reported in the stacks analysis of 73 galaxy clusters from the XMM-Newton telescope ar.

U(1) symmetry explanation Many models have been developed to explain such a line based on sterile neutrinos A possible explanation of such a line in term of the U(1) gauge theory with an Higgs mechanism is proposed in ar. Xiv: 1404. 2220 v 1 A single new scalar dark matter field f of mass 7. 1 Ke. V is introduced f couples to SM Higgs through A’ boson Due to the very small mass f can only decay into gg or nn creating the Xray line at 3. 5 Ke. V After spontaneous symmetry breaking of the U(1) symmetry the A’ boson becomes massive Due to constraints coming from the relic abundance a mass interval has been identified by authors for the A’ boson mass 7 Ke. V<MA’<10 Me. V M. Raggi and P. Valente Perugia 09/03/15
Dark sector with dark Higgs Model assumes the existence of an elementary dark Higgs h’ boson, which spontaneously breaks the U(1) symmetry. PRD 79, 115008 (2009) U boson can be produced together with a dark Higgs h’ through a Higgsstrahlung e+e-→Uh’ Cross section =20 fb x (a/a. D)(e 2/10 -4)(10 Ge. V)2/s For light h’ and U (MU, h’<2 Mm) final state with 3(e+e- pair) are predicted Background events with 6 leptons are very rare at this low energies Due to U, h’being very narrow resonances strong kinematical constraints are available on lepton pair masses Experimental search by Ba.

Why dark photon invisible decays? The invisible search technique remove any assumption except coupling to leptons W. J. Marciano et al. A’ increase its capability of having escaped detection so far No data in the minimal assumptions “If, instead, the A’ decays primarily into invisible light particles (e. g. a pair of dark matter particles with mass < m /2), that change would essentially negate all. A’ the bounds except those coming from anomalous magnetic moments” ar. Xiv: 1402. 3620 v 2 W. J. Marciano et al. ar. Xiv: 1402. 3620 v 2 At present there are no MI experimental limit for the A’� invisible decay Just a never published Ar. Xiv 0808. 0017 by Babar ‘ 08 with very limited sensitivity on e 2 (U 3 S� g. U assumes coupling to quarks!) Indirect limit from K+→p+nn (assumes coupling to quarks!) ar. Xiv: 1309. 5084 v 1 M. Raggi and P. Valente Perugia 09/03/15
Invisible dark photon and kaons In models assuming that the dark photon couples to SM through kinetic mixing eq≠ 0 K±→p±nn can be used to constrain K±→p±A’ Zd=A’ for Marciano! Depending on how the model is build the limit can change significantly for example allowing the presence of dark Z. M. Raggi and P. Valente Perugia 09/03/15
The PADME approach At present all experimental results rely on at least one of the following model dependent assumptions: A’ decays to e+e- (visible decay assumption BR(A’→e+e- = 1) A’ couples with the same strength to all fermions (eq= el) (kinetic mixing) In the most general scenario (PADME) A’ can decay to dark sector particles lighter than the A’ BR(A’→e+e- <<1) Dump and meson decay experiment only limit e 2 BR(A’→e+e- <<1) A’ can couple to quark with a coupling constant smaller el or even 0 Suppressed or no production at hadronic machines and in mesons decays PADME aims to detect A’ produced in e+e- annihilation and decaying into invisible by searching for missing mass in e+e-→g. A’ A’→XX No assumption on the A’ decays products and coupling to quarks Only minimal assumption: A’ bosons couples to leptons PAMDE will limits the coupling of any new light particle produced in e+e- collision (scalars (Hd), vectors (A’ and Zd)) M.
