Oral presentation in parallel session
A light fermionic weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter is investigated by studying its minimal renormalizable model, where it requires a scalar mediator to have an interaction between the WIMP and standard model particles. We perform a comprehensive likelihood analysis of the model involving the latest but robust constraints and those will be obtained in the near future. In...

We present the prospects for exploring low-scale dark sectors with the future DUNE ex- periment and the impact of the movable off-axis near detector concept, DUNE-PRISM, and a higher energy beam configuration. We focus on a simple scenario which extends the Standard Model by a “dark” U(1), comprising scalar or fermion dark matter and a dark photon kinetically mixed with the photon. We consider...

Recent investigations have suggested that the singlet six-quark combination $uuddss$ may be a deeply bound state $S$, called Sexaquark. An essentially stable state $S$ is a potentially excellent Dark Matter candidate. We present the first search for a stable, doubly strange six-quark state in the decays of $\Upsilon \rightarrow S \bar\Lambda \bar\Lambda$. Based on a data sample of $90 \times...

Production of dark matter and dark sector particles can take place at e+e- collision and search for such events is possible by detecting single-photon events or low multiplicity events by implementing a special trigger. Belle II experiment would be an ideal place to search for those particles thanks to the highest luminosity anticipated to be delivered by SuperKEKB accelerator. We discuss the...
