Invisible decays of axion-like particles: constraints and prospects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Axion-like particles (ALPs) can provide a portal to new states of dark sector. We study the phenomenology this when ALP mainly decays invisibly, while its interaction with standard model sector proceeds essentially via coupling electrons and/or photons. re-analyse existing limits from various collider and beam dump experiments, including in particular production electron/positron interactions, addition usual through ALP-photon coupling. further discuss interplay between these intriguing possibility explaining simultaneously muon electron magnetic moment anomalies. Finally, we illustrate prospects searches at LNF positron fixed-target experiment PADME, future reach an upgraded experimental setup.

Evading Astrophysical Constraints on Axion-Like Particles
Stellar energy loss arguments lead to strong constraints on the coupling φγγ of a light axion-like particle to two photons. Helioscopes, like CAST, are able to put competitive bounds. The PVLAS experiment has recently observed a rotation of the polarization of a laser propagating in a magnetic field that can be interpreted as the effect of a quite strong φγγ coupling. We present scenarios where...
متن کاملAxion-photon couplings in invisible axion models.
We reexamine the axion-photon couplings in various invisible axion models motivated by the recent proposal of using optical interferometry at the ASST facility in the SSCL to search for axion. We illustrate that the assignment of U(1)PQ charges for the fermion fields plays an important role in determining the couplings. Several simple non-minimal invisible axion models with suppressed and enhan...
متن کاملInvisible Axion-Like Dark Matter from Electroweak Bosonic Seesaw
We explore a model based on the classically-scale invariant standard model (SM) with a strongly coupled vector-like dynamics, which is called hypercolor (HC). The scale symmetry is dynamically broken by the vector-like condensation at the TeV scale, so that the SM Higgs acquires the negative mass-squared by the bosonic seesaw mechanism to realize the electroweak symmetry breaking. An elementary...
متن کاملConstraints on chameleons and axion-like particles from the GammeV experiment
We present the most recent results of both aspects of the GammeV experiment. The first aspect is a search for axion-like particles using a variable baseline, "light-shining-through-a-wall" technique. This search excludes the particle interpretation of the PVLAS signal with high confidence. The second aspect of the GammeV experiment is a search for chameleon particles, scalar particles which may...
متن کاملPolarization mesurements of gamma ray bursts and axion like particles
A polarized gamma ray emission spread over a sufficiently wide energy band from a strongly magnetized astrophysical object like gamma ray bursts (GRBs) offers an opportunity to test the hypothesis of axion like particles (ALPs). Based on evidences of polarized gamma ray emission detected in several gamma ray bursts we estimated the level of ALPs induced dichroism, which could take place in the ...
