    Dark Matter and Dark Sector Searches
    Thursday Morning

    We propose to search for millicharged particles produced in high-intensity electron beam dumps using small ultralow-threshold sensors. As a concrete example, we consider a Skipper-CCD placed behind the beam dump in Hall A at Jefferson Lab. We compute the millicharged particle flux, including both electromagnetic cascade and meson productions emanating from an aluminum target. We find that the...

    Thursday Afternoon I

    The FAMU experiment, for the determination of the proton Zemach radius
    exploiting muonic hydrogen, is discussed here. This experiment is led by INFN,
    and it is currently in operation at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source (UK).
    New experiments of a similar nature could benefit from the availability of a
    low momentum muon beam at JLab. In addition, the elemental and isotopic
    analysis of...

    The J-PARC muon facility is a pulsed muon beam facility located in the Material and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) at J-PARC. There are four muon beamlines and eight experimental areas. Users can utilize high-intensity positive muons with momenta ranging from 3 to 120 MeV/c and negative muons with momenta ranging from 3 to 50 MeV/c. Surface muon beams are used for material sciences...

    Primarily undergraduate institutions (PUIs) play a critical role in advancing scientific education and research by fostering hands-on learning and mentorship opportunities for students. The National Science Foundation (NSF) Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) grants provide PUIs with access to state-of-the-art equipment, enabling cutting-edge research that would otherwise be financially...

    In this contribution, we present DarkMESA, a beam-dump experiment analogous to BDX, proposed for installation at the MESA accelerator.
    DarkMESA is fully complementary to BDX and is designed to explore dark matter scenarios in the MeV mass range.
    The technologies under investigation for DarkMESA may also find application in the planned Secondary Beams Facility at Jefferson Lab.

  28. 36. Generation and characterization of directional muon beams using Laser Plasma Acceleration at the BELLA Center
    Davide Terzani (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)

    Muons are a powerful probe for applications like tomography of large, dense objects, with uses in geological surveying, nuclear non-proliferation, and industrial inspection. However, the field has been constrained by a reliance on cosmic rays, a source characterized by a low and non-directional flux, hence requiring long exposure times, limiting muography to static targets. Laser-Plasma...
