寻找暗光子引起了物理学界的极大兴趣。这样的原力载体将开始照亮黑暗区域。许多实验都在寻找这样的粒子，但迄今为止它被证明是难以捉摸的。近年来，低质量暗光子的概念在物理学界越来越流行。最近特别令人感兴趣的是 8 Be 和 4 He 异常，这可以用质量为 17 MeV/c 2 的新第五力载体来解释。拟议的暗光实验将在 ARIEL 上寻找这种潜在的低质量力载体，质量范围为 10-20 MeV/c 2 e+ e− 不变质量范围。本论文将重点关注暗光实验的实验设计和物理案例。
The search for a dark photon holds considerable interest in the physics community. Such a force carrier would begin to illuminate the dark sector. Many experiments have searched for such a particle, but so far it has proven elusive. In recent years the concept of a low mass dark photon has gained popularity in the physics community. Of particular recent interest is the 8 Be and 4 He anomaly, which could be explained by a new fifth force carrier with a mass of 17 MeV/c 2. The proposed Darklight experiment would search for this potential low mass force carrier at ARIEL in the 10-20 MeV/c 2 e+ e− invariant mass range. This proceeding will focus on the experimental design and physics case of the Darklight experiment.
