Abstract

Light weakly coupled vector bosons are very well theoretically motivated particles. They can be behind the answer to a variety of beyond the standard model hints coming from the flavor sector, from neutrino oscillations to anomalies in heavy meson decays. They may be also connected to dark matter. We propose to undergo a systematic study of light mediators signatures in current and future high intensity experiments in many ultraviolet (UV) completed scenarios and evaluate the sensitivities of these experiments to these models in the presence or not of a dark matter particle candidate.
