Description
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.
In particular, we discuss ongoing experiments and simulations involving calorimeters based on inorganic crystals, as well as novel opaque liquid scintillators for dark matter and neutrino detection.
