Dear all,
as one of the conveners of Dark Matter Working Group of INFN-WhatNext
initiative I'm trying to involve the heavy ions community (aka ALICE
experiment) in the heavy photon search physics. So far, the response has
been encouraging since they are realizing that there are discovery
opportunities also in this field. Their interest could also be driven
by the recent focus of ATLAS on LLP with masses between 10 GeV to few
hundreds MeV (again the dark photon!), but the final result is an
expression of interest of this (big and powerful!) community to HPS-like
experiments.
They pointed me out a paper (http://arxiv.org/pdf/1306.3653v1.pdf)
placed in the arxiv sometime ago and not yet published asking for a
feeling about the possible reach. If you have a chance to take a look,
or if you already know it, could you please provide me your feedback?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Marco
