Abstract

We propose to study the physics of Dark Sectors at ANUBIS, a newly proposed experiments that should be placed above either the ATLAS or CMS experiments at the LHC. Preliminary studies in the context of heavy neutral leptons show that its wide solid angle coverage allow for a very good probing of large portion of parameter space. We propose to extend such analysis to models relevant for the study of dark sector physics.
